At every change of status in job chains Job Scheduler parses a temporary file for "namh1. value" pairs. The "namevalue" pairs will be set as order params. The name of the temporary file is availabe with the environment variable SCHEDULER_RETURN_VALUES. See Passing_parameters_from_shell-jobs_to_JS also for a sample to pass parameters to pure shell jobs.
The sample below describes a job chain with two steps. Both are running the generic job PowerShellExecutor to execute a powershell script within JobScheduler.
