Windows app scheduling

Windows Desktop apps can be large, adding extra and extended load on networks and servers during key use times for the enterprise. Windows app scheduling feature allows you to schedule a time to install apps, especially large apps, on devices during a time you choose.

To configure app scheduling:

1. Go to Apps > App Catalog.

2. Click Add and select a Windows app and continue with the next steps in Add App wizard.

3. In step 5(Configure), click Install Application configuration settings to view the Configuration Setup page.
4. Select the Schedule Installation checkbox.
   

   Schedule Installation checkbox is displayed only when Silent installation is enabled.

   
   

5. Select a Start Time and a End Time to schedule the time to install apps.

6. Select a Start Date and a End Date to schedule the date to install apps.

   You can also select one of the following two actions that should be performed when the scheduled date is missed: Install during next check-in or Do not install.

7. Select an App Configuration distribution option: Everyone with App, No One, or Custom.

8. Click Done.
   

   Apps that need to be scheduled should not be added into Apps@Work.
   App scheduling is not applicable for Store apps since silent installation of Store apps is not supported.
