The Scheduling tab enables you to set up a schedule for the selected job. After you set up a schedule on the Scheduling tab, you must select the Actions Schedule Job option in the respective view to schedule the job.

To set up a schedule for a job:

From the Frequency drop-down list, select one of the following options:

On Demand: To execute the job only when a user selects the Actions Execute Now (once) option.

This indicates that no schedule is set up for the job and a user will have to manually select the Actions Execute Now (once) option to execute the job each time.

Daily (on page 1): To execute the job daily at a specified time or repeat after specified time intervals.

For example, you can set this frequency if you want to generate a report at 10:00 pm everyday or if you want to generate a report everyday at an interval of five hours.

By Day of Week (on page 1): To execute the job only on specific weekdays. If you select this frequency, you can still specify the time and the repeat interval for executing the job on the specified weekdays.

For example, you can set this frequency if you want to generate a report every Monday and Wednesday at 10:00 pm.

By Day of Month (on page 1): To execute the job only on specific days of a month. If you select this frequency, you can still specify the time and the repeat interval for executing the job on the specified day of the month.

For example, you can set this frequency if you want to generate a report on the 1st and 15th of every month at 10:00 pm.

Cron Expression (on page 1): To use a cron expression to define the schedule to execute the job.

The other frequencies, Daily, By Weekday, and By Day of Month, internally create a cron expression that displays in the Expression column in the Reporting Jobs view or EDI Jobs view.

Specify the time and/or repeat interval information for the selected frequency option.

Click Save to save the changes and close the form.
