Job Schedules
The jobs created in Job Templates can be scheduled to run on a recurring basis. For example, you might have an integration job that should run every night to refresh the values imported to Bizview.
This topic contains the following sections:
Access Schedules
Access Job Schedules by selecting the Jobs icon from the menu:
Select Schedule jobs:
Bizview displays Job Schedules, as shown below:
The Timezone drop-down allows you to choose your preferred timezone when viewing Job Schedules. By default, all Job Schedules display in your local timezone. Select the Timezone drop-down and choose a timezone from the list. Or, enter the preferred timezone in the text box to filter the results. Selecting another timezone from the drop-down automatically updates the time in the Last Run and Next Run columns, as shown below:
The selection in this drop-down also automatically converts the Fixed Time (for FIXED frequencies) or Start and End Time (for INTERVAL frequencies) in Schedule Properties, discussed below.
Important: Switching the timezone in Job Schedules does not affect existing jobs or job schedules, it simply changes the view for the logged in user.
