Time Events
Time events are one way of starting jobs, job chains and orders, with Start Times being set for a predefined point in time such as time of day, weekday, day of month etc. Job activities can also be limited to time-slots:
Start Times
- Jobs can be started when a predefined point in time has been reached: time of day, weekday, day of the month, a date relative to end of month etc.
- Time events can be grouped together under Schedules.

Execution Time-slots
Job activities can be limited to time-slots. JobScheduler supports any number of time-slots, which can be configured according to individual job requirements.
- Planned system outages or system backup intervals can be configured that prevent any jobs from being executed.
- Time-slots are the allowed operating periods for jobs, e.g. between 8:00am and 10:00am. They can be configured independently of the event that triggers the start of a job, e.g. at 8:30am.
- Job starts that are triggered outside of a time-slot will be automatically postponed until the next available time-slot.
- Exclusive time-slots for holidays can be configured either for individual or for all jobs.
