17.1 Planned Events

Planned Events

Planned Events are the means of automating tasks in Jarrison Time.

As the JT Engine starts it will read the planned events and then run each one as the set time occurs. Each day at midnight the Engine will re-read the planned events in preparation for the next day.

To test the planned events or if the Engine was closed during a planned event and a rerun is necessary, you can click on the ‘Run Now’ button to action the event immediately, disregarding the scheduled time.

It is possible to select more than one Planned Event to test (or to re-run events if the Engine was not running during the scheduled event’s time). Hold down <Control> or <Shift> on the keyboard while clicking on each event, then click the ‘Run Now’ button, and the selected events will be added to the queue. Note: If ‘Import Clockings first’ has been selected, the Engine will not import the clockings first.

Planned Events which are not needed for periods of time (e.g. holiday break) can be disabled via the checkbox in the lower right corner.

The ‘Excel’ button will send a listing of events and settings into Excel.

Click ‘’Add’ to create a new event.
