Job Scheduler FAQs

Job Scheduler FAQs

The Job Scheduler is used to run scheduled tasks and reports. For instance, a job created for Batch Eligibility checks Insurance Eligibility for all patients on the calendar for a chosen day.

The Job Scheduler consists of three basic panels, but some jobs have other panels depending on the Run Function chosen.

  • Job Run Function: Choose the function you want to schedule.
  •  Pattern: The Pattern panel allows for the selection of how often the job will run.
    • Daily: Run every day or set to skip a specific number of days before running again. For example: If set to Daily and recur to 2 days, the job will skip a day.
    • Weekly: Recur every X number of weeks with the option to select a specific day (or days) of the week to run the job. For example: If set to recur every 2 weeks on Monday, the job will run on Mondays but will skip a week before running again.
  •  Range. 
    • Enter a Begin Date for the function to start running and set a time of day (using your time zone) for the job 
    • Set the job to run indefinitely selecting No End Date, for a certain # of Occurrences, or set an End Date.
      • The job will become Inactive once it reaches the maximum # of Occurrences or the End Date set.

 How do I know that my job has failed? 

  • If a Job has failed:

    • It will be in the list of Jobs notated as Failed.

 

  • In the Encounter by Status panel, the Claims will remain in Ready for Resubmission (IP04) status.

  • This should be checked after the Batch Claims job has run to determine if all Claims were batched.

  • Claims that could not be batched can be seen in the Claims Submission Queue with the reason.
