You can schedule the task to occur on a certain day of a period or on a certain calendar time. This is helpful for automatically updating your model to contain the latest values of your company database. For example, you can schedule the import to run every night and thereby automatically update your model every night.
In the Scheduling tab of the Remote Model Import window you can define whether the data importing is scheduled. The scheduling can be done based on the calendar time or based on the day of the period. By default the scheduling option is set off.
Note: The scheduling is possible only if the local replica model exists. Once you have imported the model manually, you can use the scheduling option.
