Jobs are managed via the JobManager, which has methods for inserting 
Jobs. This is handled this way to ensure
that you only get valid Job objects that actually exist on the OGO server;


You get the JobManager instance object from the OpenGroupWare object 
(see the http://ogo-jogi.sourceforge.net/doc/userguide.html)
for an introduction on how to use JOGI and how to get the OpenGroupWare 
object);

Basically, you'd do something like:

 XmlRpcCaller caller = new ApacheXmlRpcCaller("http://localhost:20001/RPC2", "username", "password");
 XmlRpcConnection conn = new XmlRpcConnection(caller);
 OpenGroupWare ogo = conn.getOpenGroupWareInstance();
 JobManager jobManager = ogo.getJobManager();
 job.insert(.....); // put in your arguments for the job;
