Autosys - cleaning alerts thru command line

Hello- I am currently researching on an autosys command that can be invoked via command line that can clean-up alerts.

The reason I ask is because we have jobs that activate on a daily basis. The job polls whether it needs to run or not (via filewatcher or some database check). If the job isn't supposed to run yet (either the file is not there, or the flag on the base says it's not yet that job's time to run), the job returns a failure. This failure in turn sends an ALERT. These ALERTS are low and we expect them to fail, however, it is such a tedious job to clean up all of the ALERTS in the morning.

Right now, we clean up the ALERTS manually thru the Autosys client application (windows based) and we have to do it one by one.

I have been researching and reading thru the web for this, but can't find anything. Have any of you encountered this need? If you have any idea on how to clean up ALERTS via command line, can you help me out?

Thanks in advance.

lprm(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   lprm(1)

Name
       lprm - remove jobs from line printer queue

Syntax
       lprm [-Pprinter] [-] [job #...] [user...]

Description
       The  command removes a job, or jobs, from a printer's spool queue.  Since the spooling directory is protected from users, using is normally
       the only method by which a user may remove a job.

       The command without any arguments deletes the currently active job if it is owned by the user who invoked

       If the - flag is specified, removes all jobs which a user owns.	If the super-user employs this flag, the spool queue is emptied  entirely.
       The owner is determined by the user's login name and host name on the machine where the command was invoked.

       Specifying  a user's name, or list of user names, causes to attempt to remove any jobs queued belonging to that user (or users).  This form
       of invoking is useful only to the super-user.

       A user may dequeue an individual job by specifying its job number.  This number may be obtained from the program.  For example,
       % lpq -l

       1st: ken  [job #013ucbarpa]
	    (standard input)	100 bytes
       % lprm 13

       The command announces the names of any files it removes and is silent if there are no jobs in the queue which match the request list.

       The command kills off an active daemon, if necessary, before removing any spooling files.  If a daemon is killed, a new	one  is  automati-
       cally restarted upon completion of file removals.

Options
       -		   Removes all jobs owned by you only.

       -P printer	   Removes jobs from specified printer.  It may be used to specify the queue associated with a specific printer (otherwise
			   the default printer, or the value of the PRINTER variable in the environment is used).

Restrictions
       Since there are race conditions possible in the update of the lock file, the currently active job may be incorrectly identified.

Diagnostics
       ``Permission denied" if the user tries to remove files other than his own.

Files
       /etc/printcap	   printer characteristics file
       /usr/spool/*	   spooling directories
       /usr/spool/*/lock   lock file used to obtain the pid of the current
			   daemon and the job number of the currently active job
