All existing report schedules, both active and inactive, are displayed on the Report Scheduling page. To view or edit an existing report schedule:

1. From the Reports menu, select Time & Attendance Reports.

   Note: If the Time & Attendance Reports option is not visible, make sure that you have selected Practitioner in the Role Selector.

2. Click the Report Scheduling tab. The Report Scheduling page opens. Under the Report Schedules section, you can view all of your existing report schedules.

   The columns in the Report Schedules section display the following information for each schedule:

   Schedule Name — The name of the report schedule.

   Status — The current status of the report schedule. The status can be Active or Inactive. The status is automatically set to Active when you create a schedule. You can select the Inactive status if you temporarily do not need a schedule to generate reports. If you change the status to Inactive, the schedule does not generate any reports. The Time & Attendance module also changes a schedule's status to Inactive if the schedule has generated a report three times without a recipient viewing the report. In this situation, you can always re-activate the schedule, if needed.

   Report — The name of the report (from your My Reports list) that is generated by a schedule.

   Next Scheduled Run Time — The next date and time when a report is scheduled to be generated. All times reflect your Time & Attendance module default time zone.

   The Report Schedules section also contains the following buttons:

   Add New — Opens the Edit Report Schedule page, where you can create a new report schedule.

   Activate — Re-activates an inactive report schedule. To activate a report schedule, select the check box in the far left column for each schedule you want to activate and then click the Activate button.

   Inactivate — Inactivates an active report schedule. An inactive report schedule is not deleted. It simply does not generate any reports. To inactivate a report schedule, select the check box in the far left column for each schedule that you want to inactivate and then click the Inactivate button.

   Delete — Removes a schedule from the list of report schedules. To delete a report schedule, select the check box in the far left column for each schedule that you want to remove and then click the Delete button. In the confirmation dialog box, click the OK button.

3. To view or edit the specific settings for a schedule, click a schedule in the Schedule Name column. The Edit Report Schedule page opens.

   Notes:
   The following describes the options and fields that you can edit on the Edit Report Schedule page:
   
   Name - The name for the report schedule. Give the report schedule a descriptive name (for example, "Attendance Report - Accounting").
   
   Report (select from My Reports) - The name of the report that is generated by the schedule. The reports in the list are drawn from your My Reports list. If you want to schedule a report that is not in this list, you must first save it in your list of My Reports. For instructions, see Creating a Personalized Report.
   
   Time Frame - The time frame for which the data in the report covers. The time frame selected here overrides the time frame (if any) that you selected in your saved report. A Define at Runtime option is not available for automated reports. If you selected the Define at Runtime option in your saved report, then the time frame for the report schedule defaults to the first option listed in this menu. This options may not be available for some reports.
   
   Recurrence - Determines how often the report is generated. A report can be generated weekly, monthly, or one time only. The following rules apply to the recurrence settings:
   
   - To schedule a report to be generated weekly, click the Week option. From the Run on field, select a specific day of the week on which the report will be generated. Use the Run every field to select if you want the report generated every week (1), every other week (2), every third week (3), or every fourth week (4). To generate the same report more than one day a week, you must create a separate report schedule for each day that you want the report to be generated.
   
   - To schedule a report to be generated monthly, click the Month option. From the Run on field, select First day of month, Last day of month, or Specified day of month. If you select Specified day of month, the Day of Month field is displayed. If you select 31 as the day of the month, then the last day of the month is always used even if there are less than 31 days in the month. If 30 is selected, then months with 30 days or less cause the report to be generated on the last day of those months. Use the Run every field to select if you want the report generated every month (1), every other month (2), every third month (3), and so on.
   
   - To schedule a report to run only once, select the One Time Only option. To define a date range that is different from the date range you selected in the Time Frame field, click the Define Date Range check box. You can then use the From Date and To Date fields to select a date range. With the One Time Only option, the report schedule is deleted automatically after the report is generated.
   
   Range of Recurrence - Determines how long the report schedule is active. From the Begin running on field, click the button to select the date when you want the report schedule to begin generating reports. From the Stop running after field, click the button to select the date when you want the report schedule to stop generating reports. The Begin running on field must have a date entered in it. If you want the schedule to be active indefinitely, leave the Stop running after field blank. The following rules apply to the Range of Recurrence section:
   
   - The Begin running on and Stop running after fields are only displayed if the Week or Month option is selected.
   
   - If you selected the One Time Only option, the Run on field is displayed under the Range of Recurrence section. Click the button to select the date on which you want the report to be generated.
   
   Run Time - In the Run report no earlier than field, enter the time of day when you want the Time & Attendance module to begin generating the report. The time zone displayed is your default time zone. ADP recommends that you try to schedule reports to run at night. Reports can usually be generated faster during this time.
   
   Report Output - The format in which a report is created. You can select PDF or CSV (comma separated value).
   
   Report Culture - The language used in the report. Only one language can be selected. This field does not appear if your company is configured for one culture only.
   
   Recipients - This section allows you to select other Time & Attendance module users as recipients of the report. The Available Recipients list includes only those users who have the same or higher level of security access that you do. Use the button to add users to the Selected Recipients list. Use the button to remove users from the Selected Recipients list.
   
   The following rules apply to the Recipients section:
   
   - If the Allow selection of multiple recipients on a report option is not selected on the Client Administration Preferences page, the Recipients section is not displayed. In this case, you are automatically designated as the recipient of the report.
   
   - If you select the Do not include me as a recipient check box, you must select at least one person from the list of recipients. This check box is only displayed if your company allows other Time & Attendance module users to be selected as report recipients.
