This type of job is perfect for Meta-Update.
A simple script would create all the output files containing the job set definitions and another script would do the reverse. Things like request ids could be the same or different as you wish. With a bit more work, you could even attach components of jobs to other jobs such as copying an output set from one job to another With Meta-Update you can automate any type of data transform in minutes.

Exporting/Importing the repository makes the folders, but none of the content (Jobs/Transformations). Exporting to XML and then importing is painful at best, I have approximately 300 transformations, and 100 or so jobs, which are arranged by folder... I was thinking that essentially, the repository is just data stored in the UDM:Repository:* forms, but I just can't wrap my head around how I could programmatically export everything into a usable format that could be moved to another system. I'm open to suggestions... Thanks, Jaffer
