Schedule

Scheduling is the process of planning activities to achieve goals and priorities. Effective scheduling can help to accomplish the priority tasks even when you are unaware of them.

In the OvalEdge application, the schedule helps you to track the jobs that are scheduled and submitted to run on a particular date and time. 

When you schedule a job workflow on the Administration > Crawler page or on the Administration > Jobworkflow page, after saving the details, you can see all the scheduled activities on the Administration > Schedule Page

You can navigate to the Schedule page via, Administration > Schedule.

The below table describes the fields available on the Schedule page.
