Restricting Migrations to Non-Business Hours

Defining Restrictions for Form Mappings

In may be desirable in some circumstances to restrict one or more form migrations to non-business hours.  Precision Bridge allows you to define which Form Mappings within a migration project are allowed to run during normal business hours and which are not.

To restrict a Form Mapping to Non-Business Hours, open the Form Mapping from the Mapping List, then click on the Options Tab.

To prevent the Form Mapping from running during business hours, select Migrate Out of Hours Only from the Business Hours Restriction menu.

To allow the Form Mapping to run during business hours, select None (default) from the Business Hours Restriction menu.

Defining Business Hours for the Project

The business hours are defined for the project as a whole.  To define the business hours for the current project, select Business Hours from the Project menu.

After selecting Business Hours, the following window is displayed:

To enter the business hours for a particular day, simply select the corresponding row then enter the Start time and End Time.  If a row is left blank (like Saturday and Sunday in the example above), then the migration will effectively run with no business hours during those days.  All times during those days will be treated as non-business hours.   When you have finished entering business hours for each day, click on the Apply button to save your changes.
