Job Scheduling Lines (ttaad5108m000)

If multiple scheduling lines are defined the next execution date is calculated for every scheduling line and the resulting earliest next execution time is used.

The result of the defined scheduling can be verified with the Calculate Execution Dates for Job (ttaad5408m000) session.

If the Calendar and Period fields of the job header are specified, then they are used for the scheduling.
