I have a job that runs a data extract task and then an email task stating the previous task was successful. The problem is that i have this job set to run on a schedule and also to be kicked off by a file trigger to run on demand... and i only want to run the email task when the job is kicked off by the file trigger, not the job that is run based on the schedule. The person who runs it on demand does not need to see the email from the schedule as it is just a nightly refresh and just confuses her.

Hi klewis10367,

I think what you can do is make a condition bound to the e-mail task.
This condition should check the date / time of the last file trigger. This should be the same as the job run date / time.

If it's the same, job is triggered by a file else it's manual trigger.

Regards,
Erik

Good Idea...i knew it had to be accomplished by a condition but had no clue where to start. Thanks.
