# Jobs

A job is a numbered (or named) work request managed by P4 Server. P4 Server jobs enable you to track the status of bugs and enhancement requests and associate them with changelists that implement fixes and enhancements. You can search for jobs based on the contents of fields, the date the job was entered or last modified, and many other criteria.

Your P4 Server administrator can customize the job specification for your site’s requirements. For details on modifying the job specification, see the P4 Server Administration Documentation.

To integrate P4 Server with your in-house defect tracking system, or to develop an integration with a third-party defect tracking system, use P4 DTG, the P4 Defect Tracking Gateway. P4 DTG is an integrated platform that includes both a graphical configuration editor and a replication engine.
