    • Advanced scheduling options are available when configuring Scheduled Jobs in sysauto, offering greater flexibility in job planning and execution. You can configure jobs to start on a future date, end on a particular date, and define how the job should repeat.

    An Advanced check box is available on the following Run types in sysauto:
    • Daily: Runs daily, at a designated time.
    • *Day and Month in Year: Runs yearly on a specific day and month (for example, July 14), at a designated time.
    • *Day in Week in Month in Year: Runs yearly on a specific day of the week in a specific week of a specific month (for example, the second Monday in October), at a designated time.
    • Monthly: Runs on a monthly basis, at a designated time and day of the month.
    • Periodically: Runs on a designated repeating interval.
    • Week in Month: Runs monthly during a specific week of the month (for example, the third week of each month), on designated days and at a designated time.
    • Weekly: Runs on a weekly basis, at a designated time and day of the week.
    주:
    *For Day and Month in Year and Day in Week in Month in Year, only the advanced options Starting and Ending are available (not Repeat every).
    After selecting the Advanced check box, additional configuration fields will appear:
    • Starting: Allows you to define when in the future you would like your job to start running.
    • Ending: Allows you to define when in the future you would like your job to stop running.
    • Repeat every: Enables custom recurrence patterns- for example, a daily job that repeats every two days or a weekly job that repeats every three weeks

    If the Time zone field is set, the Starting and Ending fields use that time zone.

    To further understand the options; Starting, Ending, and Repeat every:

    Let's say you create a daily job with the following schedule:
    • Starting: June 1 at 00:00
    • Ending: June 30 at 23:59
    • Time: 9:00 AM
    • Repeat every: 1 day

    Although the job is scheduled to start on June 1 at 00:00, it won’t run at that time. Instead, the job will first run at 9:00 AM on June 1, because that is the specified run time.

    The Starting and Ending times define the window of time during which the job is set to run. The first valid scheduled run within that window- in this case, 9:00 AM on June 1, is when the job will run. When creating scheduled job records, if the value of Starting is empty, the system will use the current time.

    If you change the Repeat every setting to 2, the job will run every 2 days, at 9:00 AM, starting June 1. That means it will run on June 1, June 3, June 5, and so on, continuing every other day until June 29 (the last occurrence before the Ending time of June 30 at 23:59).
