Scheduled jobs are a great way to get your weekly reports sent to you for usage in other third-party applications. They can be configured to your timezone to allow you to send yourself a report at a specified time in the form of an Excel or CSV file. This article will help you create and utilize scheduled jobs.

5. Select the Schedule tab to schedule when the job will run. Use the Schedule type drop-down list to select the frequency at which you want your email to be sent.

The different options for Schedule type are as followed:

Every day: The scheduled job will run at the specified time every day.

Select days of the week: The job will only run on the specified days of the week and will not run on the days that are not selected (i.e. running the job at the end of the day every Friday).

Select days of the month: The job will only run on the days selected within the month (i.e. the job only runs on the 1st and 15th of every month).

Last day of the month: The job will only run on the last day of the month at the established time.

6. In the Run job at field, enter the time you want your job to be executed at for your selected frequency.
