Schedule a Process Request

From the Archive, Restore, Insert, Extract, Convert and Load Process Request Editors, you can run a request immediately or schedule a process request to run at a later time. To schedule a request to run at a later time, select Schedule from the File menu of the process request editor to display the Job Details dialog.

To schedule a process request:

  1. Select a command from the Actions menu to create and save a process request.
  2. Select Schedule from the File menu on the process request editor to open the Job Details dialog.
  3. On the General tab, specify a start date, start time, and latest start time.
  4. Click OK to return to the process request editor.
  5. Select Close from the File menu on the process request editor.

These steps are the minimum required to schedule a process request. In addition, you may specify details on the Repeats tab and the Steps tab of the Job Details dialog. Each of these tabs is described in the following section.

Note: The General, Repeats, and Steps tabs of the Job Details dialog are available from the process request editors, the Scheduling Editor, and the Scheduling Monitor.
