Setting up the Scheduler

  1. Set up Optiva.
    Running Global Calc from the scheduler requires Integrated Windows Authentication to be used to log into Optiva.

    In Optiva, change the Windows ID for the Optiva user who is running Global Calc to the domain user who is running the scheduled job. For example, set the Windows ID field for Optiva user FSI to INFOR\psmith.

  2. Set up the Task Scheduler.
    1. Log onto the application server. Open the Administrative Tools > Task Scheduler. Use the Wizard to create a Basic Task.
    2. Set the Task Triggers. This is when the task runs.
    3. Select the Action: Start a program.
    4. Browse for the program to run:
      C:\inetpub\wwwroot\FsSvcCore\bin\FsGlobalCalcStartProcess.exe
    5. Add command line arguments.
    6. On the Finish Summary page, select Open the Properties dialog for this task. Click Finish.
    7. On the General tab of the Properties dialog, select the option: Run whether user is logged on or not. Click OK.
  3. When prompted by the task scheduler, specify the user name and password of the user account that is assigned to the task. This must match the entry in the Windows ID field of the User form in Optiva. The program is subject to the security limitations of the user account.
