# Managing Device Scan Jobs

Use the **Device Scan Jobs** tab to view and manage all device scan jobs configured across your active scanning adapters. The tab provides a centralized view of scan job configurations, their status, and scheduling details.

To open the **Device Scan Jobs** tab, navigate to the **[Device Intelligence Hub](/docs/device-intelligence-hub)** and click the **Device Scan Jobs** tab.

The total number of scan jobs is displayed at the top left of the table.

### Creating a New Device Scan

Click **Create New Device Scan** at the top right of the **Device Intelligence Hub** to configure a new scan job, including its target devices, schedule, and connection settings. You can also click the More menu on an adapter tile and select **Create New Device Scan**. See [Creating a Device Scan Job.](https://docs.axonius.com/axonius-help-docs/docs/creating-a-device-scan-job)

## Search and Filter Device Scan Jobs

You can filter the scan jobs displayed in the table using the following options:

* **Search Adapters** - Enter free text to search for scan jobs by adapter name.

* **Adapter Name** - Select one or more adapter names from the dropdown list to filter by adapter.

* **Scan Name** - Select one or more scan job names from the dropdown list to filter by scan name.

* **Last Fetch Status** - Select a status to filter by the most recent fetch result.

* **Discovery Schedule** - Select a schedule type to filter by discovery schedule configuration.

## Device Scan Jobs Table

The following information is displayed for each device scan job:

* **Adapter Name** - The name of the scanning adapter associated with the scan job (for example, Modbus Scanner, CIP Scanner, Bacnet Scanner).

* **Scan Job Name** - The name assigned to the scan job when it was created.

* **Query Name** - The name of the saved query that defines which assets the scan targets. This column is empty if the scan job uses an IP address or subnet instead of a query.

* **IP Scope** - The IP address or subnet range targeted by the scan job. This column is empty if the scan job uses a saved query instead of an IP address.

* **Last Fetch Status** - The status of the most recent fetch for the scan job. Possible values include "Fetch ended successfully" and "Fetch ended with errors".

* **Last Successful Fetch** - The date and time (UTC) of the last successful fetch for the scan job.

* **Discovery Schedule (UTC)** - The configured schedule for the scan job (for example, "Every day at 13:00", "Every 12 hours", "Mon, Sun at 13:00", "Enabled"). A dash (-) indicates no schedule is configured.

* **Date Created** - The date and time the scan job was created.

* **Connection Configuration** - The connection configuration parameters for the scan job (for example, "Inter Packet Delay Ms: 100"). Click the **+N** indicator to view additional connection parameters.

## Sorting Device Scan Jobs

Click a column header to sort the table by that column. Click again to reverse the sort order. The **Date Created** column is sorted in descending order by default.

## Device Scan Job Actions

You can perform actions on individual scan jobs or on multiple scan jobs at once.

#### Row Actions

Click the more options menu (**⋮**) at the end of a scan job row to access the following actions:

* **Activate** - Run the scan job according to the configured trigger. When you activate a scan job, Axonius begins fetching data from the target devices at the next triggered run.
* **Duplicate** - Create a copy of the scan job with the same configuration. You can then edit the duplicated scan job and save it with a new name.
* **Fetch** - Trigger an immediate fetch for this scan job, regardless of its configured schedule. Use this to run the scan on demand without waiting for the next scheduled fetch.
* **Delete** - Delete the scan job. This action is irreversible.

#### Bulk Actions

To perform actions on multiple scan jobs at once, select the checkboxes next to the relevant scan jobs, then click **Actions** at the top right of the table. The following bulk actions are available:

* **Activate** - Activate all selected scan jobs.
* **Fetch** - Trigger an immediate fetch for all selected scan jobs.
* **Delete** - Delete all selected scan jobs. This action is irreversible.
