Editing Tasks
Tasks can be edited in two ways.
−
You can select a task and then chose an option from the edit drop
down menu.
Or
−
Right click the mouse on a task to view a pop-up menu.
The options in the pop-up menu are in a different order to those in the Edit
menu. This is to minimise the possibility of unintended options being
selected. The contents are the same in both menus except that the pop-up
menu contains the 'cancel' option. The available options in these menus
are as follows.
Option
Action
Cancel
Closes the pop-up menu.
Disable/Enable
Toggles whether the selected task is enabled. If
disabled, the task does not run but at the times that the
task would have run if it were enabled, the 'Next run
Date' is re-evaluated.
Run Now
Runs the selected task immediately. This does not
affect the existing values of the 'Next Run Date'.
Delete
Removes the selected task from the schedule. When
selecting this option the confirmation prompt is
displayed. The 'no' button is the default button so that
if the return key is pressed the task will not be deleted.
Tasks can also be deleted by selecting and then
pressing the delete button.
Properties
This option displays the schedule properties for the
selected task.
Task History
To view the history of tasks:
1. From the
File
Menu, select the
View History
option.
The history screen displays details of up to the last 600 tasks run. The
most recent date and time that the tasks were run is at the top of the
screen. All the columns available to the schedule screen are displayed in
default order. Each line displays details of the task immediately after
having been run. The success or failure of each task run can be reviewed
along with the date and time that the task was run.
If you click the
refresh
button, the listing is updated with any tasks that
have been run since opening the screen.
To clear the log file click on the button labeled
Clear
. A confirmation dialog
is displayed asking you to confirm that you wish to clear the log history.
The 'no' button is the default button so that if the return key is pressed the
task is not deleted. Tasks can also be deleted by selecting and then
pressing the delete button on the keyboard.
