View the status of a job
After you assign a software configuration to user accounts or change an existing software configuration that you assigned to
user accounts, the BlackBerry Administration Service creates a job to deliver BlackBerry Device Software, BlackBerry Java
applications, or application settings to BlackBerry devices. If you assign an IT policy to user accounts or change an existing
IT policy, a job sends the IT policy changes to BlackBerry devices. You can view the status of a job to determine if it is ready
to run, currently running, completed, or completed with task failures.

2. Click Manage deployment jobs.
3. Search for a job.
