Remarks

Microsoft SQL Server Agent job steps are identified by a user-defined, integer value. If no value is specified when you use SQL Server Management Objects (SMO) to create a job, job steps are given an identifier value when the job is added to the Jobs collection of a JobServer object.

By default, the StartStepID value is the value of ID property of the JobStep at the first ordinal position of the JobSteps collection property of the Job object.
