Creating Batch Schedule

You can define a new schedule for processing Batch by specifying the required day(s) and time intervals. The Batch is executed when the server time synchronizes with the scheduled time.

Note:

Any change made to the Server Time to accommodate for Daylight Savings Time will not be reflected automatically in the Batch Scheduler. All OFSAA services have to be restarted after the time has been changed in the server to reflect the change in time in the Batch Scheduler.
