You skipped the Sequencer, something you need to get this to work. That's what "Seqr" meant, btw, a "Sequencer" stage, not that this was the start point for a "Sequence" job. Hence the "r". :wink: The transformer needs a stage variable to compile. You don't ne...

I don't see why not, unless you can't get access to the command line there or can't have someone create a shortcut to it. :?

Are you sure you're only exporting a single job at a time? That looks like an 'export the whole project' message to me. Can you post your syntax, please?

Yes, RA is Routine Activity. And if it wants something upstream from the Sequencer, put a Nested Condition there with a Unconditional trigger.

You mean it's a transform? One I've yet to notice after all this time? Sheesh. Edit: OK, I feel a little better here - there's no such thing in my 7.5.2 installation. It would be easy enough to whip one up, you sure that's not custom work? Now, there is such a thing in a Parallel Transformer, but no...

You are trying to run this from where the client is installed rather than the server, yes? You either need to run it from the directory it lives in, or add that directory to your PATH variable or fully path the command. Command Line 101 stuff, really.

You could, however, arrange for both to start at the same time and then delay one as you noted. Only 'downside' I can see is the fact that it will always have that built in delay, ...
