Minutes

Hourly

• Enter the Run Between times. The task runs only between these times.

Applications Manager determines the task's initial start time based on the time specified in the Start times field on the schedule's General tab.

Daily

• Enter the number of days in the Every __ Days field. Applications Manager will schedule the task to run every three days. If the task cannot run on the scheduled day, Applications Manager will run it on the next available day.
• Select the days of the week you wish to include.

Weekly

• Enter a number of weeks.
• Enter a date in the Reschedule from field. For a weekly schedule, this date determines the day of the week to reschedule from. For example, if you enter 03-17-11, in the Reschedule from field, Applications Manager will always reschedule from Thursday, since 03-17-11 is a Thursday. Keep in mind that an exception may prohibit the schedule from running on the day of the week of your reschedule from date, when this happens, the radio button you select in the Exception method box determines the schedule's behavior.

Monthly

• Enter a date in the Reschedule from field. For a monthly schedule, this date determines the day of the month to reschedule from. For example, if you enter 03-17-11, in the Reschedule from field, Applications Manager will always reschedule from the 17th day of the month. Keep in mind that an exception may prohibit the schedule from running on the day of the month of your reschedule from date, when this happens, the radio button you select in the Exception method box determines the schedule's behavior.
• Select Weekdays, Every day, or Selected days with the boxes checked for the days you wish to include.
• Select an Exception method. For more information, see Entering Schedule Exceptions.

When a schedule's frequency is Monthly, and the Next run date is the last day of the month, all following 'next run dates' will be the last day of the month.

You can set the Next run date to a date greater than or equal to the 28th, but less than the last day of that month. If you do so, when a month is reached that does not include that number of days (for example, the 30th of February), the date will be set to the last day of that month. It will continue to be scheduled to the last day of the month from that point forward.
