Scheduling on demand

When you select the schedule "On Demand" option, an object runs only when users specifically run the object through their web application (the Crystal Enterprise web desktop or a custom web application). For more information on the Crystal Enterprise web desktop, see the Crystal Enterprise User's Guide.

To set an object to be scheduled on demand

1. In the Objects management area of the CMC, select an object by clicking its link.
2. Click the Schedule tab.

   The Schedule tab appears.

3. Select the On Demand option.

   

4. Complete the following fields:
   • Number of retries allowed

     This number indicates the number of times a job server will attempt to process an object if the first attempt is not successful. By default, the number is zero.

   • Retry interval in seconds

     Crystal Enterprise will wait for the specified number of seconds to pass before attempting to process an object again (if the first attempt failed). The default setting is 1800 seconds.

5. Click Update.
