Robot Schedule Dashboard Asset Descriptions
Following are descriptions of each of the available Robot Schedule dashboard assets. You use the assets to create widgets. Note: The default asset names are listed below. When you create your widget, the asset name will be used as a default name. You can change that name.
For the selected system or critical job list, you can create a widget from these assets that allows you to set a window of time during which you'd expect certain jobs to normally run. It then shows you any anomalies, such as jobs that didn't run, or jobs that ran outside of (before or after) the business window you set. This can help you monitor whether or not you're meeting the terms in your SLAs. With this information, you can identify problem areas and fix them.
