Use Robot/SCHEDULE’s easy-to-use graphical user interface, the Robot/SCHEDULE Explorer, to manage job scheduling for Windows, UNIX, and Linux servers.

Event-driven scheduling
Monitor for changes to a file or directory, processes starting or ending, or user-defined events. Specify the event as a prerequisite for a Robot/SCHEDULE reactive job to ensure that jobs run when they’re supposed to, no matter where the triggering event occurs.
 
Enterprise Job Scheduling
 
Familiar Robot/SCHEDULE tools
Use Robot/SCHEDULE’s job blueprints, schedule forecasts, job schedule list, job completion history, and Schedule Activity Monitor to manage your enterprise job scheduling.
 
Robot/SCHEDULE Agent Manager for Windows servers
Set up and manage Robot/SCHEDULE Enterprise agents directly on Windows servers. Add, delete, edit, start, and stop agents, and see troubleshooting information.
 
Agent Commands
Automate your servers even when you can’t access the Robot/SCHEDULE Explorer. Enter agent commands at any command prompt connected to the agent system.
 
Reusable scheduling objects
Simplify job setup and updates by defining scheduling objects (command sets, environments, return codes) you can share between jobs and servers.
