The request is to provide a time / maximum wait time for the InsertJobs step to receive a results file. This is useful in cases where all jobs go to the InsertJobs step, but some jobs are not run through the inserter.
In order to make this work we would need:
A property on the Inserter Controller or InsertJobs step that specifies the maximum amount of time to wait for a results file. If the time is exceeded the job will move on to the next step. If no value is specified the job will continue to wait until the results file is received or a manual action is taken on the job.
A job property that indicates how the job completed insertion: results file received, manually completed, or wait time exceeded. This property can then be used in a connector from the InsertJobs step to do something different if the wait time was exceeded – such as skip reconcile and creating reprints.
