    Question

    Why does the Overlap & Collection Analysis job fail to initiate with the error "Error when trying to submit Overlap and Collection Analysis job"?

    Answer

    Check and make sure that there is not already another Overlap & Collection Analysis job running (or finalizing).

    Additionally, try breaking your file down into smaller files of around 10,000 ISBNs, as a large file can also make it difficult for Alma to process your request.
