As part of the configuration information that is associated with a job, A job can also contain properties that affect which types of entities or events

is more efficient than running multiple jobs against the same data. For a list in a population. There are also multiple options for splitting the data into
of the properties associated with detectors, see categories and partitions. Some of these more advanced job configurations
{ref}/ml-job-resource.html#ml-detectorconfig[Detector Configuration Objects]. are described in the following section: <<ml-configuring>>.

[[ml-function-overview]] {ref}/ml-job-resource.html[Job Resources].
=== Analytical functions
See <<ml-functions>>. In {kib}, there are wizards that help you create specific types of jobs, such
as _single metric_, _multi-metric_, and _population_ jobs. A single metric job
is just a job with a single detector and limited job properties. To have access
to all of the job properties in {kib}, you must choose the _advanced_ job wizard.
If you want to try creating single and multi-metrics jobs in {kib} with sample
data, see <<ml-getting-started>>.
You can also optionally assign jobs to one or more _job groups_. You can use
job groups to view the results from multiple jobs more easily and to expedite
administrative tasks by opening or closing multiple jobs at once.
