Configuring Timed Rules

From the Timed Rules window, you can configure the frequency that the timed

rules operation will process Email, Combination, FTP, Output and Report to

File actions. Using the Timed Rules feature, you also can edit, test and delete

an existing timed rule. The system handles up to 25 timed rules.

The timed rule shown in Figure 4.3 is used to send the FTP_Temp_File

(action) every 60 minutes. The FTP file contains one report or several reports

written to a file (Temp_File) using the Report to File action. Before configuring

a timed rule, you must create the FTP action (FTP_Temp_File) using the FTP

option in the Configuration tab.
