Work with Scheduled Jobs

Scheduled jobs are jobs configured to run at some point in the future. These could be one-time jobs, or recurring jobs that are scheduled to run on a consistent basis. To view scheduled jobs, navigate to the Job Manager by proceeding through the steps described in Open the Job Manager.

With the Job Manager open, click the Scheduled tab in the top-left corner of the page. All scheduled jobs appear in a grid.

The Scheduled Jobs table displays information about each job, including:

  • Type
  • Case Name
  • Schedule
  • Date Modified
  • Submitted By
  • Last Ran
  • Next Run

Note: You can open the configuration settings for the scheduled job by selecting the icon on the right side of the grid.

Sort the Jobs Grid

You can sort the list of scheduled jobs alphanumerically by selecting the column head in the grid whose contents you would like to sort. Clicking the Submitted By column, for instance, will show all scheduled jobs in alphabetical order based on the names of the users who submitted the jobs.

If you click the column head once more, all jobs display in reverse-alphabetical order.

Filter the Jobs Grid

The Job Manager also provides filtering capabilities to help you locate the specific jobs you need. Review the information below to learn more about working with filters.

  • When you apply a filter, the chip associated with the filter turns blue to indicate that it has been applied. Additionally, a number displays on the chip that represents the number of parameters configured within that filter. In the example below, two job types have been selected and applied. As such, the Job Type filter card has turned blue, and displays +2 beside the name.

  • You can apply more than one filter at a time. For instance, you can use the Job Type filter to search exclusively for Keyword List jobs, while using the Case filter to locate such jobs within a specific case. The combination of filters provides you with a more fine-grained search experience.

  • For most filter options, a Select All button is available for you to select every parameter in that filter with a single click. Once all items are selected, you can then deselect the one or two items that you do not need. For instance, if you would like to include most job types in your filter, you can save time by clicking the checkbox for Select All, then unchecking any of the job types you would like to exclude.

  • You can set how many jobs you would like displayed in the grid by using the Show Jobs dropdown. Options include showing 25, 50, 100, 300, and 1000 jobs.

The table below describes the filtering options available on the Scheduled tab of the Job Manager.
