[Object Scheduler] - Is it really realible ?

Tarek_Demiati

there's a Job Scheduler in the Service Management module which
allows you to execute objects (jobs)

I've various jobs configured there, often the fields "Last Date Checked" and "Last Time Checked"seems to have not been updated with the current date.
ie : I've got a report which need to be runned every day at 5PM and
I've got 27/02/2006 in the last "Last Date Check" field (it should have been today -> 03/03/2006)

Sometimes all the jobs are successfully executed (with no obvious reasons) and sometimes some jobs seems like they've not been executed (no errors are logged)

Questions :
Am I the only one who find the Standard Job Scheduler to be pretty unreliable ?
Have you fixed any bugs or improved the job scheduler ?
(If you've, do you mind sharing your code with the rest of us)

What version of navision are you running. See if there is new version in latest version of navision and if you can update your version.
The Job Scheduler is has only a few objects and wouldnt' effect if you load objects from latest version of navision. I have a client that runs it on 3.6 for about 3 years and it runs fine.

We run it on Navision 4.0 non sp1, without any problems, I run about a half dozen reports, one runs every hour on the hour, the rest once a day at a set time in the evening.

you may want to double check your setup interval check,

We created our own scheduler, based on NAS instances.

Works like a charm.
