# Scheduling Jobs

**Applies to:** Lasernet Core 11

Rather than continuously sending jobs out of Lasernet Core, scheduling can be used for sending them out at predefined times. When a module supports scheduling, its **Properties** window contains a **Scheduling** tab.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> All times are specified in local time (not UTC).

Double-click an entry on the **Scheduling** tab or click **Edit** or **Add** to configure a scheduler queue.

On the **General** tab, enter a unique **Queue name**. When a queue is emptied by Lasernet Core, the SchedulerQueue JobInfo is set to this name.

On the **Criteria** tab you can specify criteria that must be fulfilled for a job to be entered into the queue. If no criteria are met for a job, it is executed immediately.

On the **Times** tab, you specify when Lasernet Core empties the job queue. You can create one or more scheduler events here. Click **Add** to add a new scheduler event.

## Specify a Schedule

You can specify scheduling based on time intervals (seconds, minutes, or hours) or based on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule.

### Interval

Empty the queue every time that the specified amount of time passes. You can specify a schedule based on a specific number of seconds, minutes, or hours. For example, you can set a module to process jobs every **10 minutes**.

### Daily

Empty the queue at the specified time of day. Use **Recur every** to control whether this happens daily or at a multiple-day-based interval. The schedule begins on the specified date. Use the **Expires** controls to specify when this schedule will end.

For example, you can set a module to process jobs at 2 AM on alternate days (**00:02:00** and set **Recur every** to **2 days**).

![Example of a daily schedule.](https://cdn.document360.io/c831ef63-c6b3-48ee-b443-3e33644e4e2e/Images/Documentation/scheduling-jobs-image-ufjl85us.png)

### Weekly

Empty the queue at the specified time on the selected days of the week. Use **Recur every** to specify how often (in weeks) the schedule runs. The schedule begins on the specified date. Use the **Expires** controls to specify when this schedule will end.

For example, you can set a module to process jobs at 10 AM on the Monday and Wednesday of every second week (**10:00:00**, set **Recur Every** to **2 weeks**, and select **Monday** and **Wednesday**).

![Example of a weekly schedule.](https://cdn.document360.io/c831ef63-c6b3-48ee-b443-3e33644e4e2e/Images/Documentation/scheduling-jobs-image-l1howni4.png)

### Monthly

Empty the queue at the specified time, on the selected days of the selected months. The **Last** checkbox specifies the last day of the month (regardless of its date). The schedule begins on the specified date. Use the **Expires** controls to specify when this schedule will end.

For example, you can set a module to process jobs at 2 PM on the 14th day and the last day of every month (**14:00:00**, select every checkbox in the **Month** area, select **14** and **Last** in the **Days** area).

![Example of a monthly schedule.](https://cdn.document360.io/c831ef63-c6b3-48ee-b443-3e33644e4e2e/Images/Documentation/scheduling-jobs-image-0ct21x03.png)
