Scheduled Jobs

Scheduled Jobs in OLE run automated notice generation and obsolete data purging operations. The schedule is maintained as a Cron Expression. The Cron Expression comprises of 7 characters each representing seconds, minutes, hours, day of month, month, day of week and year, in that order. It takes in various different special characters such as * (all values), ? (no specific value), - (used to specify ranges), , (used to specify additional values), / (used to specify increments), L (last), W (weekday), # (used to specify the nth day of the month). For more information, please refer to this page on Quartz Scheduler.

The below notices are automatically generated 

  • Courtesy Notice
  • Overdue Notice
  • Lost Notice
  • Request Expiry Notice
  • On Hold Notice

Apart from notices, the following jobs run at scheduled intervals to purge old records

  • Delete Expired Requests
  • Delete Temporary History Records

Bootstrap data

Bootstrap data shipped with the product may have schedules already configured with time intervals in the Cron Expression. The Institution must make sure the right time interval for notice generation is specified and the job is enabled or disabled as necessary.
