Menu path

This table contains all system-internal check runs ("jobs") of the FM portal. These jobs check the data entered into the system at regular intervals with regard to various aspects. For example, they check certain data records for missing data that could cause malfunctions or trigger workflows when the time for triggering has been reached. Activate or deactivate jobs for your data here and define the interval. You can also execute the job manually, e.g. to trigger workflows before the interval expires. You can also specify who is informed about the execution of the job and its results and whether and the detailed results of a job run are also sent. You can obtain a detailed description of the actions performed by the job by opening the job record.
