Programming BI Scheduler VBScript and JScript Jobs 4-17
Schedules a new job with a Weekly trigger.
Syntax: ScheduleJobWeekly name, description, scriptType, script,
startDate, startTime, endTime, minutesInterval, weeksInterval, whichDays [, parameters, flags, maxRunTimeMS,
maxConcurrentInstances, endDate]
Argument: See
Table 4–18 for ScheduleJobWeekly method arguments.
4.8.13 OnError Event
This topic is part of Section 4.8, Oracle BI Scheduler Script Object Methods and
Events. Occurs when the script engine encounters a run-time error while executing the script.
This is intended for cleanup purposes, but the creative use of trycatch blocks in JScript and appropriate Error Handling in VBScript are often superior alternatives to
using this event.
Usage: The script engine calls this procedure when it encounters a run-time error
while executing the script. Define this procedure in your script to perform cleanup
