We run scheduled tasks to make sure certain things happen regularly. For example:
- PHI copy automation
- used to run on scanner computer, then manager computer, then was finally discontinued during COVID when no one was there to log on; the script now runs as part of push/pulling (eg Pull down centralized data.vbs)
Accessing scheduled tasks
Click on
- Start Menu
- Settings
- Control Panel
- Scheduled Tasks
- Click the task you want to change
- to disable task, e.g. going on vacation:
- uncheck the "Enabled" checkbox and click OK
- to see/change the schedule
- click the "Schedule" tab...
Vacation process
If you run a scheduled task on your computer while you are on vacation, the task may lock up the target application if something goes wrong. So, it's a good idea to hand the task over to someone else before you go. Book in your calendar to re-set to regular for upon return.
