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. Open the Schedule section of the notification design form.

2. Use the Schedule drop-down menu to select an existing schedule.

   OR

   Click the New Schedule button to create a new schedule.

   See Creating Schedules for more information.

   Note:

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

3. 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.
