Automations

Automations are made up of one or more profiles that are run together as one process, in the order you specify using Automation Designer.

An automation consisting of several profiles can be useful in allowing multiple transfer processes to run autonomously. An automation with only one profile can also be useful, for example, to pre-configure any of the runtime parameters set as overridable for the profile.

You can use Automation Designer to:

  • create and edit automations.
  • add profiles to an automation.
  • define the order in which the profiles are to run within the automation.
  • change overridable runtime parameters.
  • store, and load automations.

You can also schedule automations to run at a predetermined time using a scheduler program such as NT Scheduler.
