# Schedule

## Introduction

The Schedule page in DBSync Cloud Workflow provides a powerful and flexible way to automate the execution of your workflows. With the ability to set precise timings and frequencies, you can ensure that processes/workflows run automatically without manual intervention. Whether you need to run a process/workflow daily, weekly, or at specific intervals, the DBSync Schedule feature allows you to define the exact start times and recurrence patterns that fit your business needs.

View, configure, and manage the scheduling details of your workflows on this page. The **Schedule** page gives you full control over when your processes/workflows are triggered:&#x20;

* Set a start date and time&#x20;
* Choose how often a process/workflow repeats. &#x20;
* Enable or disable scheduled process/workflow, as needed

The Schedule page gives you the flexibility to activate scheduled processes when required.

The following columns provide information regarding the processes/workflows that have been scheduled:

1. **Task**: This column displays the name or identifier of the process/workflow being scheduled.&#x20;

* **Example**: In the screenshot above, the process/workflow is labeled "Print SF records."

2. **Frequency**: This column indicates how often the scheduled process/workflow should run. Adjust the frequency in the scheduler setup (Refer to the next screenshot) to define the specific times/dates when the process/workflow should be triggered.

* **Example**: Refer to the above screenshot. "2,4,6 12:0" in the Frequency column means the process/workflow is set to run on the 2nd, 4th, and 6th day of the month at 12:00 PM.

3. **Start Date Time**: This field displays the start date and time of the scheduled process/workflow. This helps to determine when the process/workflow will first execute based on the selected schedule.

* **Example**: "2025-04-07 17:46:24" in the above screenshot shows the scheduled start date and time for the process/workflow.

4. **Next Run At**: This field indicates the next scheduled run of the process/workflow. It helps you to track the next upcoming execution of the process/workflow based on the frequency settings.

**Example**: "2025-04-09 12:00:00" in the above screenshot shows that the next run of the process/workflow is set to happen on April 9, 2025, at 12:00 PM.

5. **Status**: This column shows the current status of the scheduled process/workflow. Enabled status indicates the schedule has been activated whereas disabled status indicates the schedule has been deactivated. Click the toggle <img src="https://1036205596-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fv9avy716UiAsS24zOznZ%2Fuploads%2Fj50yqMVuaLDZvRNs9tt1%2Funknown.png?alt=media&#x26;token=f523ce2b-291e-44ca-8427-11f7a59ca2af" alt="" data-size="line">next to the **Status** column to change the status between *Enabled* and *Disabled* to activate and deactivate the schedule.

* **Example**: Disabled Status in the above screenshot shows that the process/workflow is currently inactive or not scheduled to run.

6. **Actions**: This column contains edit and delete action buttons to manage the schedule.\
   **Operations**:

* Edit (Pencil Icon): Click this to modify the schedule, such as change the start date, frequency, or repeat rules.
* Delete (Trash Icon): Click this to delete the schedule entirely if not longer needed.

#### Set Up the Scheduler

**Scheduler Settings**: Click **New**. The scheduler pop-up window appears. Setup your schedule frequency in the Scheduler pop-up:

* **Start Date**: This field allows you to select the date when the process/workflow should start running. Change the start date to fit your desired schedule.
* **Start Time**: This field allows you to select the exact time of day when the process/workflow should start. Specify the hour and minute for when the process/workflow should begin on the selected start date.
* **Repeat**: This dropdown field allows you to set how often the process/workflow should repeat.

  * **Options**:
    * **None**: The process/workflow will only run once and not repeat.
    * **Minutes**: The process/workflow runs at a defined interval (every x minutes)
    * **Hours**: The process/workflow runs at a defined interval (every x hours)
    * **Weekly**: The process/workflow will run on the selected days of the week at the specified time.
    * **Customize**: The process/workflow will repeat at a user-defined time. After selecting customize, select the Hours, Minutes, Day, and Month from the customize Date & Time field.&#x20;
