Answers.Text: "Crucially" is right... I haven't found any other documentation which states which scheduled jobs must be configured *per site* on a multi-site (a.k.a. multi-domain) install. It is the specific job itself which either is or is not "domain-aware," right? So ideally each job should be documented as to whether it needs to be run per site or not.
  
  It seems it would be good to update https://docs.civicrm.org/user/en/latest/initial-set-up/scheduled-jobs/ with what you've stated here, assuming it's still accurate... and maybe a general caveat about jobs within multisite.

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2017-10-19)
  
  I have a WordPress multisite with CiviCRM 4.7.24 also in multisite mode. The main site Scheduled Jobs page (civicrm/admin/job&reset=1) looks and works fine, but that page on other sites looks like this:
  
  [![Scheduled Jobs](https://i.sstatic.net/KmjFv.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/KmjFv.png)
  
  If I click "Add New Scheduled Job" I get this:
  
  [![Add New Scheduled Job](https://i.sstatic.net/ht1kA.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/ht1kA.png)
  
  which is not what I want. :(
  
  Can anyone clarify why the additional sites don't have the regular Scheduled Jobs interface?
