Understanding report schedule records
This section describes what to infer from the data displayed in the Schedules section (Reports+View
Reports).
•
Example 1: The Schedule Time for a schedule displays 09.09.2008 17:39:28, which means
that the schedule is created on 9th September 2008 at 17:39:28 hours. The Occurrence for
this schedule displays Every Wednesday at 11:00 hrs, which means HP XP7 Performance
Advisor is supposed to generate a report every Wednesday at 11:00 hours. So, the schedule
is active and a report is generated only on the 10th September 2008 at 11:00 hours.
The End Time for this schedule displays 09.24.2008 11:00:00, which means the last report
that HP XP7 Performance Advisor generates is on 24th September 2008 at 11:00 hours. This
is because, while creating the schedule, the number of times it should repeat was entered as
3 in the Occurrence box. It implies that HP XP7 Performance Advisor repeats the schedule only
three times before it is automatically deleted.
Hence, in addition to 10th September 2008, HP XP7 Performance Advisor also executes the
schedule on the 17th and 24th September 2008.

Example 2: The Schedule Time for a schedule displays 09.09.2008 17:43:09, which means
that the schedule is created on 9th September 2008 at 17:43:09 hours. The Occurrence for
this schedule displays Day 1 of every month at 9:00 hrs, which means HP XP7 Performance
Advisor is supposed to generate a report on the first day of every month at 9:00 hours. Hence,
the schedule is active and a report is generated only the month after September, on 1st October
2008 at 9:00 hours.
The End Time for this schedule displays 11.01.2008 09:00:00, which means the last report
that HP XP7 Performance Advisor generates is on 1st November 2008 at 09:00 hours. This
is because, while creating the schedule, the number of times it must repeat is given as 2 in
the Occurrence box, which implies that the schedule repeats only twice before it is automatically
deleted.
Hence, in addition to 1st October 2008, HP XP7 Performance Advisor also executes the
schedule on 1st November 2008.

Example 3: The Schedule Time for a schedule displays 09.10.2008 00:15:02, which means

this schedule displays Daily at 19:00 hrs, which means HP XP7 Performance Advisor is
supposed to generate a report daily at 19:00 hours. Hence, the schedule is active and a
report is generated only the day after 9th September 2008, on 10th September 2008 at
19:00 hours.
The End Time for this schedule displays 09.10.2008 19:00:00, which means that the last report
that HP XP7 Performance Advisor generates is on 10th September 2008 at 19:00 hours. This
is because, while creating the schedule, the number of times it must repeat is given as 1 in
the Occurrence box. It implies that the schedule executes only once before it is automatically
deleted.
