Introducing Task Default Properties

If you right-click the Tasks node in the treeview and select Properties, you can view properties that are used as the default values for all tasks. The following property tabs are available:

•
Task Credentials (For more information, see Changing Task CredentialsChanging Task Credentials .)
•
Task Schedule (For more information, see Changing the Schedule for a Task .)
•
Task Logging (For more information, see Enabling Task Logging .)
•
Task Retry (For more information see Setting Task Retry Attempts .)
•
Financials (For more information, see Setting Financial Chargeback Amounts .)
•
Delivery Time Threshold (For more information see Setting Delivery Time Thresholds .)
•
Tracking Log Cache (For more information see Configuring the Tracking Log Cache .)

If you right-click on an individual task under the Tasks node, or in the Task Summary view, and select Properties, you can view the properties of the individual task.

Changing Task Credentials

The Task Credentials property tab allows you to set the security credentials for the task. By default, this tab displays the credentials that you defined for the Task Scheduler Service during installation.

If you change the Task Execution Server, this tab automatically displays the credentials that you identified for that server.

Task credentials are not validated on this property tab so ensure that you enter a valid account and password or the gathering task will fail. For more information, see Creating a Default Gathering Task .

Changing the Schedule for a Task

The Task Schedule property tab allows you to set a default schedule for your gathering tasks. You can create two types of schedules:

•
Schedules that run once (at a specific time such as December 31 or Now)
•
Schedules that run consecutively at a defined period (such as daily, weekly, or monthly)

MessageStats also allows you to run tasks immediately without changing the task schedule. From the Tasks Summary View, right-click a task and select Run Now.
