There is provided a job control system for a document processing system having a document processing subsystem in which a job, including a set of image data and a job control ticket, is processed each time the job, along with the job control ticket, is submitted to the document processing system. The job control system includes an input source including a user interface with a display, the user interface being used to (a) program a first job control ticket with a first set of attributes, the first job control ticket controlling a manner in which the job is to be processed in a first job processing event, and (b) program a second job control ticket with a second set of attributes, the second job control ticket controlling a manner in which the job is to be processed in a second job processing event; and a linking program for causing the first and second job control tickets to be linked to the set of image data so that a single submission of the job causes the job to be processed in the first job processing event with the first job control ticket and in the second job processing event with the second job control ticket, wherein the job need not be submitted to the document processing subsystem multiple times.
