Commands may be processed manually or automatically. To process any pending commands manually, go to Supervisor mode and select OfficeTalk Server from the Options menu. The OfficeTalk Services dialog box is displayed. Select Command processor service from the list of services and press the Kick… button. OfficeTalk will process any pending commands.

Usually, you will want to schedule command processing to be performed automatically. You can do this in the following way:

Check the check box next to the Command Processor entry in the OfficeTalk Services dialog box and press the Settings… button. The Command Processor Settings dialog box is displayed.

The Schedules page shows a list of existing command processor schedules. To add a new schedule, press the New… button. A Scheduled Event dialog box is displayed.

The When drop down list lets you choose the type of scheduled event. You may choose between specifying processing to occur Every n minutes or Once on a particular date at a particular time or Weekly on one or more days of the week at a certain time. The fields in the Scheduled Event dialog box will change according to your selection. Once you have selected the scheduled event type and have specified the appropriate dates and times, then press OK. The scheduled event will be added to the list in the Schedule dialog box.
