The Cumulus Scheduler enables you to define and schedule tasks to be automatically performed by Cumulus. It will save you time and increase your productivity by automating frequent tasks. The Scheduler enables you to run time consuming functions during off-peak hours, and also enables you to automate routine tasks. In combination with the Cumulus Trigger feature, the Cumulus Scheduler makes a powerful tool to automate business processes and save wasted resources.

The Cumulus Scheduler consists of the Scheduler Manager and the Scheduler Server Application. The Scheduler Server Application be installed separately (on the computer that you want to perform the tasks; for details see the Installation Guide.) The Scheduler Manager lets you set up tasks that are to be performed by the Scheduler Server Application.

PRECONDITIONS: To use the functions of the Scheduler Manager you must have the appropriate permissions for the Cumulus Server: Create, modify and delete shared scheduler tasks. The create permission always includes the modify and delete permissions. The modify and delete permissions can be granted separately. (Server Permissions > Scheduler Task Permissions)
