Enable/Disable schedules and task auto run

Enable/Disable schedules is a setting in the schedule library. When a schedule is disabled in the library, it is turned off for all tasks that use it. it is re-enabled. This allows you to control schedule execution globally for all tasks that use the schedule.

Auto Run is a setting at the task level. When enabled, it allows the task to execute automatically according to its assigned schedules. Disabling Auto Run for a task prevents it from running on schedule. This only affects the specific task; other tasks using the same schedule are not impacted.
