Scheduler

Using Scheduler, you can schedule certain Axiom Software tasks to be processed on a Scheduler server at a specific date and time. For example, you can schedule a data import, or a refresh of plan files.

Processing tasks using Scheduler has advantages over manual processing, such as:

  • Leverages the server's processing power and frees up your computer's resources.
  • Enables recurring scheduling of ongoing tasks.
  • Allows tasks to be scheduled during "off hours," during periods of low network and system activity.
  • Allows tasks to be performed in batch, including enforcing task dependencies.

Scheduler processes tasks using jobs. Each job is a scheduled unit that can contain one or more tasks. The tasks in a job can be processed sequentially or concurrently as appropriate.

Only system administrators and users with the Scheduled Jobs User security permission can access Scheduler.
