# Page 676 "Schedule a Job"

> Page 676 "Schedule a Job" in Base Application (System.Threading). 2 public procedures. Present since at least BC23, still in BC30.

Base Application · System.Threading · BC23-30 · [source at ea08af5e](https://github.com/microsoft/BCApps/blob/ea08af5ef2d6a9b5c5af4a029288abbe2c883220/src/Layers/W1/BaseApp/Modules/System/JobQueue/ScheduleaJob.Page.al) · facts from BC29

## Properties

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Caption | Schedule a Job |
| SourceTable | Job Queue Entry |
| PageType | StandardDialog |

## Fields on this page

Layout controls in source order, grouped by the container they sit in. Shows: the table field a control is bound to (or its expression as written); ToolTip: the control's own, else the bound field's (marked).

| Group | Control | Shows | ToolTip |
|---|---|---|---|
| Content | Description | [Description](../table/472.md#fields) | Specifies a description of the job queue entry. You can edit and update the description on the job queue entry card. The description is also displayed in the Job Queue Entries window, but it cannot be updated there. |
|  | Earliest Start Date/Time | [Earliest Start Date/Time](../table/472.md#fields) | Specifies the earliest date and time when the job should be started. If you leave the field blank, the job starts when you choose the OK button. The format for the date and time must be month/day/year hour:minute, and then AM or PM. For example, 3/10/2021 12:00 AM. |

## Procedures

- `ScheduleJob(JobQueueEntry: Record "Job Queue Entry"): Boolean`
- `SetJob(JobQueueEntry: Record "Job Queue Entry")`

## Triggers

OnQueryClosePage

## Relations

- source table [Table 472 "Job Queue Entry"](../table/472.md)

## Calls

From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete.

- [Codeunit 453 "Job Queue - Enqueue"](../codeunit/453.md) (1 call: `OnQueryClosePage → (object)`)

## Across versions

- Present in: BC23-30
- Changed (declaration) in: none

## Documented on Microsoft Learn

- [Run Batch Jobs and XMLports](https://learn.microsoft.com/dynamics365/business-central/ui-how-run-batch-jobs)

Source: AL metadata extracted from the code (names, ids, signatures, properties); no code bodies (D10).

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "page", object_name: "Schedule a Job")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
