Description

The task scheduler controls when certain operations or processes are run. Basically, a task is a codeunit or report that is scheduled to run at a specific data and time. Tasks run in a background session between the Business Central Server instance and database. Behind the scenes, the task scheduler is used by the job queue to process job queue entries that are created and managed from the clients.

Examples

Example 1

Update-NAVScheduledTaskList -ApplicationDatabaseServer MyAppDBServer -ServerInstance BC -Tenant Tenant1

This example updates the application database connected to the Business Central Server instance with the scheduled task information from Tenant1.

Parameters

-ApplicationDatabaseCredentials

Specifies the user name and password of the login account that the Business Central Server instance uses to access the application database in SQL Server when using SQL Server Authentication. This parameter is only relevant when you set with the ApplicationDatabaseServer and ApplicationDatabaseName parameters
