Viewing the scheduled jobs list

The page Presentation Reports > Job Queue lists the scheduled jobs created for presentation reports. The list gives the status for each job, as well as basic information about the job, such as how frequently it runs. From this page, you can add and delete scheduled jobs, temporarily suspend a job, and more.

You can search for a particular job by entering a search term in the Job name entry field at the top of the page. Click Go to begin the search.

Click Clear to remove the current search term, and then either perform a different search or click Refresh at the bottom of the page to display the complete list of reports.

The list provides the following information for each job:
