Scheduling the Data Replication task

We recommend scheduling the Data Replication task to run every 60 minutes. After the initial data replication, the task will include any changes since the last time the task ran.

Note: Since the employee time zone is used to calculate the UTC date-time values, ensure that all employees have an accurate time zone assigned in WFM before the Data Replication task is first enabled.
