The scheduler manages long-running scheduled tasks. A scheduled task periodically triggers an action on a job or report at the specified frequency. For example, a scheduled task can start or stop a job or generate a data delivery report on a weekly or monthly basis.
Each scheduled task has one time zone that applies to all the times configured for the task. By default, the time zone is UTC.
As a scheduled task runs, you can monitor the status of the task, view details about each time the task triggered an action on a job or report, and view an audit of all changes made to the scheduled task.
