How to manage Scheduler jobs

Last updated: 7 May 2026

What this does

Use Scheduler in impact-web to manage automated jobs, review execution logs, and monitor job quota where the workspace and user have access.

Current access and functionality

  • Verified against the current impact-web, impact-client, and impact-marketplace code on 2026-05-07.
  • Scheduler is an admin-oriented web module. It is shown only when the current user has owner or admin access and the workspace has the Scheduler feature or entitlement enabled.
  • Scheduler includes job listing, activity editing, action parameters, log review, and quota display.
  • Scheduler controls automated activity. Incorrect configuration can trigger repeated or unexpected actions, so changes should be made by workspace admins who understand the process being automated.
  • Scheduler is distinct from project auto-scheduling. Scheduler runs configured jobs; project auto-scheduling calculates task and project timelines.

What admins can do

  1. Open Scheduler from the web menu.
  2. Review existing jobs, status, and configured actions.
  3. Open a job or activity to inspect parameters and timing.
  4. Update action parameters only when the expected output is clear.
  5. Review logs after changes to confirm the job runs successfully.
  6. Monitor quota usage and adjust schedules if jobs are approaching limits.

Change checklist

  • Confirm the business process owner approves the automation.
  • Check the action parameters before saving.
  • Avoid overlapping schedules that perform the same work.
  • Review logs after the next run.
  • Pause or adjust the job if errors repeat.

Common issues

  • Issue: Scheduler is missing from the menu. Fix: Confirm admin access and Scheduler entitlement or feature flag.
  • Issue: A job does not run. Fix: Check job status, parameters, quota, and recent logs.
  • Issue: A job runs but produces the wrong result. Fix: Review action parameters and recent configuration changes.
  • Issue: Project dates did not change after editing Scheduler. Fix: Project auto-scheduling is a separate project planning feature.
