Schedule a Transaction run
When you use the Scheduler to schedule a run in advance, Studio automatically connects to SAP, runs the transaction on the schedule you set up, and then closes the connection with SAP. Studio can send an email notification confirming that the scheduled job was performed.
Notes:
To run a scheduled script on a virtual machine (VM) with Windows 7 or later or Windows Server 2012 or later, you must remain logged on to the VM.
For information about running Winshuttle with Citrix, see Citrix installation with Winshuttle products.
