We have 2 jobs

Job 1 runs at 11pm and normally runs 1 hour. 

Job 2 runs at 1am and must run after Job 1 completes, this job usually runs for 6 hours. 

On occasions Job 1 runs 3 hours and this causes job 2 to miss it start window.

 

How can I adjust the schedule so that Job 2 has 2 criteria?

   1-Job 1 completes

   2-Has to start after 1am

Hi @rholmes this is currently not possible. Please submit an idea in the ideas section. A future potential workaround to this could be using the API for “triggering and monitoring task executions”, however at the moment this is still in closed beta testing.

Hi @rholmes,

Which version of TimeXtender are you running? 

Where do you run the jobs (e.g. ODX, MDW or SSL)?
