Scheduler Configuration

Detailed descriptions can be found in the related program descriptions; a graphical overview can be found in the chapter Graphical Overview: Scheduler Configuration.

Scheduler Position (Parameters -> Misc. Params)

Enter a name in the field Scheduler Name. This name can be chosen at will but it has to be the same as the "Program Name" in the windows "Process Unit" and "Applications". Make sure the spelling is correct.
Note:
If the entry can actually be chosen at will finally depends on the successive order in which you configure the scheduler. If you begin with the entries in the window "Applications", you have to adopt the "Program Name" entered there in the window "Scheduler Position".
Enter a sequential number in the field Position.
Enter the program to be involved in the scheduler in the field Program Name.
In the field Mode, you define on which day (of the week) the program is to be started.
Note:
If you select "No Day", you can configure your scheduler(s) without them being started immediately.
Define the start time in the field Time.
In the field Day of the Month, you can define the start day within a month. You should only make an entry here if you selected the Mode Day in Month.
Save your entries and close the window.

You have to install a process unit for the scheduler by making the following entries:

Select the appropriate Installation.
Enter a free number in the field Process Unit (e.g. 77).
The name for the Process Unit can be chosen at will. Enter an appropriate name.
In the field Login Name, no entry is necessary.
Select the Program Type Oscar Client.
Select the appropriate System Unit.
Select the required Language.
The entry in the field Program Name must be the same as in the window "Scheduler Position" (field "Scheduler Name") and in the window Applications (field "Program Name").
Activate the option Graphic.
Save your entries and close the window.
Note:
If you would like to print, you have to assign a Device of the type line printer to this process unit.

Go to System -> User Interface -> Applications.
Select the Appl. Name Scheduler.
Enter a free number in the field Application, e.g. 777.
The entry in the field Program Name can generally be chosen at will but it must be absolutely the same as in the windows "Scheduler Position" (field: Scheduler Name) and "Process Unit" (field: Program Name). If you have already made entries there, you have to adopt the name.
Save your entries and close the window.

The entries will only apply after the MICROS Retail OSCAR POS application has been stopped and started again.
