Adding a Schedule to a Notification

A schedule defines how often the system will run the notification, whether it is based on an orchestration, a Watchlist, or simply sending a notification message. You can define a schedule using minutes, hours, days, or a Cron string. Cron is a time-based job scheduler that can be used to schedule jobs to run periodically at fixed times, dates, or intervals (for example, every Tuesday and Friday at 9:00 am).

To add a schedule to a notification:

1. Expand the Schedule section of the notification design page.

2. Click the Select Schedule button.

   A dialog appears listing all the schedules that you have access to.

   Note: Schedules are UDOs so you must have the proper permissions to see the New Schedule button.

3. Click a schedule from the list.

   A schedule is associated to the notification.

4. Click Save to save your changes.

Caution: Be aware that just associating the schedule with the notification does not mean that the schedule starts running. The scheduler must be started by an administrator for the scheduled notifications to start running on their schedules.
