It also allows users to leave recurring tasks to be automated while doing other functions as well, helping businesses create an environment of multi-taskers for better productivity.
The feature is complete with a set of powerful scheduling functions to help you plot more tasks and spend less time on repeating tasks. The Job Manager engine and this can be accessed from the System Manager of your Connected Business application.
