Common Errors
Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks
because they are related more to the system than to PlanetPress itself. Some examples would be W3813,
W3830, W3991, W4005. These correspond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission
errors on folders or files, etc.
Comments Tab
The Comments tab is common to all tasks. It contains a single text area (Task comments)that lets you
write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the OKbutton,
and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Time of Day Condition
Time of Day conditions test the current time and day. Using a time and day grid, you can select blocks that
correspond to time and day coordinates. Various settings can be used to change time intervals, for instance,
that range from 15 minutes to 24 hours. You may choose to use days or dates, and you may also select
specific weeks or months.
The Time of Day condition differs from the process schedule in the fact that you could put this condition after
generating some output, and you can also run tasks when the condition itself is false, which is not the case
for a process outside of schedule.
You can choose contiguous as well as separate time blocks as required. The condition is tested True every
time the current time and date corresponds to a selected time block.
Properties
General tab
l Month: Select “All months” if you want the selected time blocks to be valid every month of the year.

l Week of month / by date: Select “Date” if you want the selected time blocks to be valid only on
specific dates. Select “All weeks” if you want the selected time blocks to be valid every week of the
