Hello,

I need to schedule a Task with mulitple launches (4 times a day at 08am, 10am, 12pm, 02pm).

To do so I've create a Task with multiple launches and a launch window of 24 hours.

But what happens is that the task only executes once a day. I have the feeling that the Calculator waits for the end of the launch window to calculate the next launch. Is my guess right?

Hello,

yes your guess is right!

Which means that the launch window must be smaller than the job frequency.

I would recommend strictly shorter, so the job can be visible in the launches window so you can disable it / delete it / update it if required.

This is true for Tasks with multiple launches but also "normal" Tasks.

One last comment: As of Dollar Universe V533, it is possible to calculate the next launch separately from the laucnh window (parallel launches).

So if ever you are running V533, you can change this setting in the Task ;)

Great.

We are curently in the process to migrate from V513 to V533 so I take good note of what you said.

Cheers!
