Article summary

Cloud Scheduler is a scheduling solution that runs in the cloud. It is used to automatically run data load rules, report collections, the Consolidation process, Dynamic Journals, Financial Package reports, scenarios, Simulation Engine processes, and translations export at a scheduled date and time.

Provide Users Access to Cloud Scheduler

In order to use Cloud Scheduler, Admin users must provide access to other users. Access to Cloud Scheduler is enabled on the Navigation Access page. To access the Navigation Access page, navigate to Maintenance > Admin > User Management > Navigation Role > Navigation Access.

Access Cloud Scheduler by navigating to Maintenance > Admin > Cloud Scheduler. Two tabs are displayed, Process Flow and Job Manager:

  • Process Flow — A set of tasks defined to be executed in parallel or sequentially. A Process Flow can be scheduled to run once or can be reoccurring.
  • Job — For each schedule in the Process Flow, a Job is created. A Job executes a set of tasks as defined in the Process Flow.

With Cloud Scheduler you can:

  • Add various tasks to a scheduled run
  • Define task dependencies so all tasks are executed in parallel or sequentially
  • Define, schedule, and manage Process Flows
  • Automatically execute jobs based on schedules
  • Track job status and individual tasks created based on the Process Flow schedule
  • Notify users via e-mail regarding job and task statuses
