How to get the start time and end time of a scheduled job

[amaradiswamy]

Hi All,

As per our requirement, we need to run three scheduled jobs in an order. for now, we have estimated the time and kept timers in workflow for that particular time. Is there any way to know the time in which a scheduled job started and ended, so that i can kept that condition and then that process will be fine. Please provide your suggestions.

Thanks & Regards,

I put gs.log at the top and bottom of the scheduled job:

gs.log('Starting scheduled job', '$$$$ - SCHED JOB');

//Scheduled Job here

gs.log('Ending scheduled job', '$$$$ - SCHED JOB');

Then you can search all logs for the source $$$$ - SCHED JOB and find the time.

I agree with Paul has said.

Create a schedule job.

At the end of the schedule job, fire an event.

Use script action which runs based on the event and then call the next schedule job using this script action and repeat the process so on...
