Trigger configured in Sequence job

We have the following job sequence:
Job A followed by Job B

In the Triggers tab of Job A:
Expression type = Custom - (Conditional)
Expression = @FALSE

What does it mean ? Does it mean that Job A and Job B are triggered to run concurrently ?

Thank you

Triggers only "fire" when their expression evaluates to TRUE. Explicitly setting one to @FALSE would tell it to never fire.

Presumably Job B is only there for troubleshooting, and is expected never to be required. To get Job B to run, you would need to change the trigger and re-compile the sequence.

The other possibility is that development/unit testing is not yet complete.
