Auto-Run determines whether a task runs according to its assigned schedules.
Imported tasks are created with Auto-Run disabled. Do not enable
Auto-Run until the task has been reviewed, configured, and tested.
Warning: If the task remains scheduled in both
MOVEit Automation and Automate MFT, both tasks may
run and process the same files or actions. This can cause duplicate transfers,
duplicate downstream actions, or repeated processing of the same
files.
To enable/disable Auto-Run:
- Select a task from the list. Double-click or click the
Edit Task icon (
). - Open the Actions menu for the task.
- Select Turn On Auto-Run.
- Confirm that the Schedule is disabled for the original task in MOVEit Automation, then select Enable.
