When viewing the Schedule Manager, keep in mind that it now automatically refreshes when new jobs are added, or when there is a change in a job status. You always get the latest, real time view of the Schedule Manager.

When a configuration change is ready to be scheduled to one or more devices in the Network, typically on completion of an Editor session, the scheduler is opened. The scheduler allows you to define when a job is run, and enforces workflow approvals.

The Scheduler allows you to designate when jobs are pushed to the network. Access to the Schedule option is available at the bottom of each editor window.

The Scheduler allows you to complete the following tasks:

  • Set the Priority of a Job

  • Set Run Times for all Jobs

  • Set Recurring Job Schedules

  • Approve Scheduled Jobs (user-permissions required)

  • Submit Jobs for Approval

  • Send Notifications to Other Users Regarding Job

  • Review Job Tasks

  • View Data Fields

When opened, the Schedule Job window contains three tabs:

Schedule Job

Contains general job tasks details and date configuration settings

Tasks

Contains the task details of the job. Including the content of the push and the devices that are affected. Depending on how this is accessed, this tab may not be available on each Schedule Job window.

Notification

Contains settings and selections for who, when, and why notifications are sent while the job is processing

Data Fields

Contains the Data Fields for this selected device

For a job to be scheduled, details on the Schedule Job tab must be completed. Details on the Tasks and Notification tabs need not be completed to submit the job.
