Using a parallel job stage in more than 1 job

Hello - I'm very new to DataStage.

How do you use a stage in more than one job?

For example, I have a look up that needs to be used in 10 jobs. How can I save the lookup to the metadata and re-use it.

I have found I can copy the lookup to each job it's required in, but then it is an independant copy of the stage and changes made to the original don't affect the copy.

I think I may have found the answer.

Shared Containers.

Good find.

Just be aware that changes to shared containers do not affect the jobs that reference them, until after you recompile such jobs.

That makes sense I guess. Thank You!
