Calendar Based Scheduling

You have several options for the Calendar Based scheduler but in all cases you will need to enter a time of day to run the job (Start Time).

Daily

If you select Daily you may run the job once every day, once per day on weekdays (Monday through Friday), or once daily a specific number of days apart. For example, specifying a run "Every 3 Days" will run once daily every third day. Selecting this option allows you to run jobs from 1 to a maximum of 99 days apart.

Weekly

If you select Weekly you may run the job from once per week up to once every 99 weeks. You can specify from one to all seven days of the week on which to run the job. When scheduling keep in mind that Sunday at midnight is the end of a week with Monday beginning the next week. This is important if, for example, you're scheduling a job to run Tuesdays and Fridays every 2nd week. If the day you're starting the scheduler is Wednesday then the job will run on Friday (week 1), skip week 2 as expected, then run both Tuesday and Friday in week 3 and so on. This is illustrated in the table below:

	Mon	Tue	Wed	Thu	Fri	Sat	Sun
Week 1			Set timer		Job Runs
Week 2
Week 3		Job Runs			Job Runs
Week 4
Week 5		Job Runs			Job Runs

Table 2. Scheduling a job on Wednesday that will run Tuesdays and Fridays every second week.

Monthly

Select Monthly to run the job once per month on a specified day. You may indicate a maximum of 12 months apart for each run of the job. This feature allows you to schedule quarterly, bi-annual or annual runs, for example. If the last day of the month is the desired run date, enter 31 for the run date. The scheduler allows for months of varying length and selects the last day of each particular month be it 28, 29, 30 or 31.
