l Week of month / by date: Select the desired option for the time grid. Note that any
selection you make in this box will be interpreted based on the selection made in the
Month box. If you chose All months in the Month box and Last in the Week of month / by
date box, then the process will run on the last week of every month. If you chose January
in the Month box and First in the Week of month / by date box, then the process will run
only on the first week of January.
l Select Date to display dates on the grid’s top ruler.
l Select any of the other options to display days on the top ruler.
l Select All weeks to have the process run every week.
l Select First, Second, Third or Fourth to have the process run on the first, second,
third or fourth week.
l Select Last to have the process run only on the last week.
l Time division: Select the duration of each daily segment in the time grid. If you select
00:15, each segment will represent only 15 minutes and each day will be made up of 96
blocks (4 blocks per hour times 24 hours). If you select 24:00, each segment will
represent an entire day.
l Poll once per activity period: Select to perform this process’ initial input task no more
than once for each set of contiguous blocks (blocks that are on the top of one another).
Choosing this option overrides the polling interval option. By default since the Time Grid
blocks are divided by hours, this option will make your polling happen once every hour.
The Time Grid
The PlanetPress Workflow Process Options dialog box includes a time grid that lets you set
exactly when you want a process to run. The grid is composed of blocks that represent time
periods on a given day. To activate the Time Grid, the "As soon as possible"option must be
unchecked.
In the Time Grid, a blue block will indicate that the process is active within that time block.
While blocks mean the process will not be active.
