The jobs for a machine can be planned in an MES. This clause defines methods and events to request and send a list of planned jobs.
This Method is used to send a list of jobs available on the client to the server. The server shall support to receive at least 10 jobs.
Signature
SendJobList (
[in]JobListElementType[]JobList);

The variables JobClassification, JobPriority, PlannedStart, PlannedProductionTime and LatestEnd are additional information only for the operator to be shown on the machine control. This may help the operator to decide which jobs to download/activate. PlannedStart and LatestEnd shall be given in UTC time.
The JobClassification can e.g. be used to present a maintenance job with planned time. The possible values are user dependent and not standardized by this specification.
The instance of JobsType can fire an Event of RequestJobListEventType (without parameters) to initiate a call of SendJobList by the client. This can e.g. be triggered by an operator who wants to see the planned jobs for his machine.
