As an IT Operations employee, I am asked by managers, developers, and 4-5 different groups in the business to create different types of Scheduled Tasks / Jobs.

It would be great to have the ability to have Main groups, then classify jobs in multiple sub-groups. For example:

Business
↳Front Office
--:Job1
--:Job2
--:Job3
↳Mid Office
↳Risk
--: Job1
--: Job2
--: Job3
↳Compliance
--: Job1
↳Treasury
--: Job1
--: Job2
↳Back Office
--:Job1
--:Job2
--:Job3

This would help to organize jobs in a single instance if Visual Cron.

Thanks,

We have asked for this previously and were told that it may be a fair amount of work because the grids would need to be re-written.
We have found ways to work without this but would still like this feature if it was possible.

I'd agree with this. Our previous Scheduling vendor before we found this AWESOME product, was Tidal Enterprise Scheduler which apparently is now owned by Cisco. It had an option to create any number of groups for filtering and it's one of the few features Tidal had that I actually miss.

So I might have a job that is VBscript and does a reboot of a server, or a file transfer using NDM (Connect:Direct), etc..

I could have a group for VBScript. A Group for 'Server Reboot'. And a Group for 'NDM Submission'. A job might be in any number of those groups, but it'd be nice to, at a glance, know every job that uses NDM. Or, Every job that can/will involve a reboot.

I like this, particularly the Favourites idea (maybe should be called 'Least Favourite' )

Assuming this allows sub folders this looks good to me

One other thought, it would be great if folders could be permissioned per user/group. So for example we could have a folder called 'Operations Team Jobs' which could be run by our operations team and these would be the only jobs they could see/run.

Short reaction: Like it!

I agree with Erik - Fabulous feature to introduce

EDIT : Even better if Users\Groups and access rights could be assigned to folders!

Hi Erik

Any progress on this feature? Any ideas on when we might see it in action?

Thanks

Andy

We will probably implement it in Q1 but not sure yet about if we should mix permissions with this new feature yet.

Any update on this feature please?

Any update on this feature please?
Thanks

We have been busy with other features for a while but we still have plans to continue on this - just hard to say when we will be able to start.
