Property Value/Return Value

Type: Boolean

This is only relavant when using Azure Active Directory (AD) for authenticating users. If the user is granted access by a delegated administrator role in Azure AD, the function returns false. In all other cases, it returns true.

For more information about tasks and TASKSCHEDULER data type functions, see managing tasks Task Scheduler.

Example

The following example uses the CANCREATETASK function in code that creates a task, and then uses the SETTASKREADY function to set the task to ready.

The code requires that you create the following C/AL variable.

TaskID	GUID

IF TASKSCHEDULER.CANCREATETASK THEN
  TaskID := TASKSCHEDULER.CREATETASK(CODEUNIT::"Job Queue Dispatcher", CODEUNIT::"Job Queue Error Handler");  
  TASKSCHEDULER.SETTASKREADY(taskID);
