4.1.2 Registering a job
Define when to execute the created item, and then execute it as a job.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Executing a job according to schedule
If you want to have an action executed according to the rules set out by a schedule (for example, if you want to have an action repeatedly executed according to the schedule set forth in a calendar), take the following steps:
In the Job Design View, select the Exec. on time tab, and then either click the New button or select a registered job definition and click the Edit button to open the Job exec. on time dialog box.
For details on how to operate the Job exec. on time dialog box after opening it, see 6.2.1 Job exec. on time dialog box.
You can also have the job executed within the specified valid time frame.
You can specify the time frame for determining job execution dates in the "from yyyy/mm/dd until yyyy/mm/dd" format. The following table gives an overview of the items you must specify to set a valid time frame.

Omitting this setting causes the system to create execution schedules for 367 days starting from the registration date of the job.
For example, if you register a job on January 1, 2019, the system creates execution schedules for a period of time until January 3, 2020. In this case, immediately after you registered the job, there is no schedule for January 4, 2020 or later. Such schedules will be created automatically on January 2, 2019 and later.
If no schedule is created when you register a job, the system will create the next schedule later during operation. That is, you do not need to re-register the job 367 days before the execution.
(2) Executing a job after an event
If you want to have an action executed after a specific event such as the creation of a file or the arrival of an email, take the following steps:
In the Job Design View, select the Exec. on event tab, and then either click the New button or select a registered job definition and click the Edit button to open the Job exec. on event dialog box.
For details on how to operate the Job exec. on event dialog box after opening it, see 6.2.2 Job exec. on event dialog box.
