    we need a single view of Job Summary information that can be automatically refreshed as the job executes. This is critical high use functionality available on the green screens that is missing from RDz. See attached and/or contact me for a webinar demo.

    RDz in the Remote System details view does provide the information about the job that includes Job ID, Status , Date time of submission , Owner User id etc. and the individual step info can be found for each job if you do Right click and do Go Into .. now that has more details about the individual steps and the poll configuration already offers the refresh - so is the requirement to have a single view to display all the relevant info and not go into the a new view just to look at a single job ?
