Article summary

Optionally, you can define schedulers that will run an executor once at a specific time or multiple times, instead of running it manually. Executor schedulers can be defined for job executors and for flow executors.

When scheduling an executor, you can select the day(s) of the week and the time at which the job will be executed.

Access the page Commission ▶ Executor Schedulers to view all executor scheduler entries, as shown in the figure below. The table below explains the information in the list.
