We use AutoSys for job scheduling, and I find myself writing a lot of JIL (job instruction language) scripts to delete boxes and re-insert them due to small job changes (e.g. start time, etc.). Is there an update command that can be used? CA's AutoSys cheat sheet has no information on one.

Yes,

It is the update_job: attribute.

Example to change the box BOX_A start time to 15:00 from 14:00

update_job: BOX_A
start_times: "15:00"

Save this into a file and run it using jil < filename.jil
