Scheduled Trigger Window

Scheduled Trigger

The scheduled trigger engine is one of the most versatile around.

Frequencies range from every minute to once a year.

Advance options allow for setting start and stop times on intervals (i.e. run every 5 minutes each day between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm).

Options include for scheduling task every day, just workday and include or not include holidays.

Can select only certain days (i.e. only on Mon, Wed and Fri.)

Conditional Trigger Windows

Condition Triggers

AutoTask allows for running a task based on specific conditions rather than by scheduled times.

For example you can run a task if a specific file exist or does not exist. Run if a specific process or application is running is running or not.

This feature allows for making better use of your computing time.

Task Options Window

Task Options

There are several options that can be used to effect how a task is ran.

Log the task start and finish to a log file.

Several options for what happens before running the task and after the task has ran.

For example you could disable a task after it has ran if you want to make sure that the task does not execute more than once. Or by using another task to re-enable it based on something else happening.
