Run Frequency

By default, all jobs in an Application run daily. You can override this default for an individual job by specifying a different run frequency in the job definition. If you want to override this default for all the jobs in the Application, you can specify a different run frequency in the Application properties.

You cannot specify a time in the job's run frequency. When an Application is generated, the run frequency determines whether the job is selected to run. To submit a workload object at a particular time, you would specify the submission time as a time dependency in the job definition.

Note: You can specify times and frequencies (such as 4PM DAILY, EVERY 2 DAYS or 3 Times JAN 1 YEARLY) in Event definitions.

Using the Run dialog, you can define and test schedule criteria for your workload objects without memorizing the scheduling terms or the possibility of building invalid schedule criteria. With a few clicks, you can specify common schedule criteria, such as last workday of month or third last day of month.

After you become more familiar with the scheduling terms, you can save time by typing the criteria in a free form field and testing the results.
