SharePoint Task Properties: Schedule

Each task processes its targets to a schedule that you define, looking for items that are ready to be archived. Any that meet the archiving criteria it then archives.

The default schedule is the one that you set in the Site properties. If you do not modify individual tasks they run according to the schedule in the Site settings.

This scheduling control sets the times for a single task. The times you set here override the Site settings for that one task.

In the case of Exchange Mailbox Tasks, this schedule does not affect the task's ability to respond to user requests to archive items. Archiving is always available to users.

Note:

If you change any of these settings, you must stop and restart the task for the changes to take effect.

Use site setting. Select this to make this task use the settings that are defined on the Site Schedule property tab.

Run:

Never. Select this to stop this task from ever processing its targets. If this is an Exchange Mailbox Task, selecting this setting does not prevent users interactively storing specific items in their archives. Archiving is always available to users.
At selected times. Select this to set the default to be that this task processes its targets at the times you select. Note that an Exchange Mailbox Task processes mailboxes until either there has no more work to do, or the end of the allotted time window is reached.
Run Now. Click Run Now to run the task immediately. If you are using Run Now for an Exchange Mailbox Task, the task runs once through the mailboxes and then stops. Run Now is often useful when you are piloting or demonstrating Enterprise Vault. When you have selected Run Now, you are given the choice of running Normally or In report mode.

Interval:

1 hour. Select this to make the time display show units of one hour. You can then select times in intervals of an hour.

15 minutes. Select this to make the time display show units of a quarter of an hour. You can then select times in quarter hours.

Note that, if you change the display back to 1 hour, all times are rounded up to the nearest whole hour. For example, if you set a time of 07:00 to 07:15 it would change to 07:00 to 08:00 when you change the display to 1 hour. This change is not reversed if you change back to 15 minute intervals. If you do change to hourly intervals by mistake, use Cancel to abandon your changes.
