Scheduling objects

Scheduling an object allows you to run it automatically at specified times. When a

scheduled object runs successfully, an instance is created. An instance is a version of the

object that contains data from the time that the object was run.
You can see a list of instances by looking at an object’s history, and you can view any of

the instances. If you have the rights to view objects on demand, you can view and refresh

any instance to retrieve the latest data from the object’s data source.
By scheduling and viewing instances, you can ensure that the objects have the most

up-to-date information available for viewing, printing, and distributing.

Note:

Before you schedule objects, be sure to check your time zone setting on the

Preferences page in InfoView. (See

Setting Preferences

” on page 13.) The default time

zone is local to the web server that runs SRM Report Optimizer, not the CMS to which

users connect. Set the time zone to ensure that your scheduled objects are processed in

accordance with the time zone in which you are working.

To schedule an object

1.

Go to the folder that contains the object that you want to schedule, and click the

object’s

NOTE:

show all of the actions that are available for it.
