Managing jobs and scheduled tasks

The Runtime Manager manages jobs and gives you an overview of your currently scheduled job tasks. Using Runtime Manager, you can create, edit, delete, execute, and terminate tasks.

Because Runtime Manager is based on Windows task scheduling manager, you will find any scheduled task currently defined on the system.

To open Runtime Manager, select Tools | Runtime Manager.

1. Create a new task by clicking Create a New Schedule on the toolbar or select Actions | Create. The New Schedule window is displayed.

2. Select a Job in the New Schedule window.

3. Edit Name and Description.

4. Enter Username and Password for the Windows user account that will run the job.

   Because this is a separate task, Windows expects a valid username and password. A password is required for the account. The user must have read/write access to the IQ ETL user folders, which s can be the installation directory or the Windows user directory, depending upon the type of installation.

5. Click Create to confirm your settings.

1. Select the scheduled job from the list.

2. Click Execute a Schedule, or select Actions | Execute.
