Fields on the Day Interval Pane

Field | Description

Every | Select this checkbox to run a task every certain number of days. Then, enter the interval in the field to the right of the checkbox. You can specify a starting date in the Starting on field.
Days | Enter or select the number of days you want to wait in between each launch of a task. For example, select 3 to restart the task every three days. The maximum number you can choose is 9,999 days.

Indicates the anchor date used to calculate the interval. To change this date, select the date you want from the drop-down calendar.

The task can run on the date you enter. However, the date does not override the effective date specified in the Effective Date pane. For example, if your effective date is next month but you set up an interval of 30 days calculated from today's date, the task can not run prior to its effective date next month.
