Job Manager

[peterlaursen]

The 'job manager' will only record jobs that have been scheduled (it reads its information from the Windows Scheduler).  Saving a job/XML-file does not add anything to the job manger (it does not operate its own data storage but is only a 'filter' on top of the Windows Scheduler). 

Am I correct that this is the issue or did I misunderstand? If so you are not the first person being confused about this and it also is a very old (and you could say rather primitive) implementation.

Thank you Peter – when I scheduled as well as just saving the job it worked perfectly. Now I can look at the Job Manager and click Execute now without needing to enter all those parameters each time. (And of course it's set to do it automatically everyday now too!)

Thank you again.
