CA-Scheduler®

CA-Scheduler® is a powerful and highly flexible solution for the task of scheduling jobs through your enterprise in an orderly and timely fashion.  CA-Scheduler centralizes your job scheduling information in a single database, and uses this information to intelligently automate the submission of your jobs for processing.  You may schedule a series of jobs by simply referencing a predecessor job, so that changing the schedule for a job stream is simply a matter of changing your criteria in the lead job.  Because CA-Scheduler safeguards and automatically schedules jobs, you and your production staff may use the time saved to explore the many other ways CA solutions can improve the services of your company.
