Setting, changing, or removing job deadlines

You can set a job deadline manually or change a deadline set by the workflow.
To set, change, or remove a job deadline:
  • To set or change a deadline:
    1. Right-click the job in the Jobs table and select Change Deadline.
    2. Set or change the Deadline step property by selecting the name of the step that a job must complete to meet its deadline.
    3. Set the new date, time, and time zone.
      The Change Deadline action lets you change a deadline to a specific time. The action has no effect on any SetDeadline step in a workflow.
    4. Click OK.
  • To remove a deadline:
    1. Right-click the Job and select Remove Deadline.
    2. In the confirmation message, click OK.
If the current deadline has already passed for the job when the deadline is changed or removed, the value of the Deadline outcome property remains unchanged.
