General
JobScheduler Order orders and Schedule's contain the "Time Element" of the schedulingschedules contain the run-time element that specifiec the periods for execution. There could be two usecases
...
use cases:
Use Case 1: Pre-defined days, i.e.
...
non-working days or
...
holidays
To suppress execution on pre-defined non-working
...
days
...
or holidays you could create a holiday calender for all jobs in JobScheduler or for individual orders/jobs. This can be effected by adding the same holiday configuration as an include file to respecticve orders/schedules.
Use Case 2: Ad-hoc
...
days processing should be suppressed

...
In
...
some Ad-hoc use cases, pre-defined orders and schedules should be suppressed or should not execute and should resume their normal execution once "suppressed" time is passed.
There are two approaches to achieve this:
Approach 1: JOE: Add
...
non-working days to order as a persistent change
Hint: Changes effected Changes done using JOE are persistent changes and will remain in effect even after a JobScheduler restart.
1. Original Order without "
...
holidays/
...
non-working days" will run every day at 08:00 AM
2. Open JOE and add
...
non-working days to order
3. Check run-time and make sure "suppress execution" is selected
4. Save order
Hint: The "suppress execution" option for holidays will not appear in the XML configuration as this is the default value.

Questions
If I enter 'Non-Working Days' values, do I need to change 'When Holiday' in my 'Run Time' entry from 'ignore holiday' to 'suppress execution'?
Yes, but since "suppress execution" when holidays is the default behavior for JobScheduler you will not see the corresponding xml tag in the order configuration.
I have not defined any global holidays, but are any pre-defined and would they cause an order to be suppressed on those days?
No, until you do not explicitly include a holiday calendar in your order/schedule there will not be any pre-defined holidays.
