Schedule Properties (General Page)

  • Article

Use this page to view or modify a shared schedule. Shared schedules can be used in place of report-specific or subscription-specific schedules. Changes to the schedule are applied after you save the schedule. Editing a schedule has no effect on jobs that are currently in progress. If you edit a schedule while it is being used, all currently processing reports and subscriptions triggered from that schedule will be allowed to finish.

Not all frequency combinations can be supported in a single schedule. For example, if you want to run a report at 12:00 P.M. and 4:00 P.M. every Friday, you must create two daily schedules that specify a Friday run date, one with a start time of 12:00 P.M. and another with a start time of 4:00 P.M.

Schedule processing is based on the local time of the report server that hosts and processes the schedule.

To open this page, start SQL Server Management Studio, connect to a report server, open the Shared Schedules folder, right-click a shared schedule, and select Properties.
