Hello,

Define a "special resource" and then use it in the jobs you want to prevent running at the same time.

Hello dick scherrer and thank's for your answer.

I don't know in wich case i have to use exclusive or shared special ressourcce

Could you give me an example please ?

Thank's.

Hello,

I'm not a TWS user, but i suspect you would define an exclusive special resource (i have a 50/50 chance ). The manual or TWS support will tell you exactly. . .

does not seem so complicated to look at the TWS manuals to find out,
the explanation is pretty clear over there ( manual' s land )
