How do I suppress execution dates in a schedule?

General

JobScheduler Order and Schedule's contain the "Time Element" of the scheduling. In some usecases where predefined Order/Schedule's has to be suppressed or should not execute,but resume there normal execution once "suppressed" time is passed.

There are two approaches to achieve this

JOE :Add holidays to Order

Changes done using JOE are persistent changes and will remain in effect even after JobScheduler restart

1. Original Order with out hoilday will run every day at 08:00 AM
   
2. Open JOE and add holiday into order
   
3. Save order
4. deploy the update order in JobScheduler's live folder

   Order XML

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
   
   <order  job_chain="execute_pf" id="daily">
       <run_time  let_run="no">
           <period  single_start="08:00"/>
   
           <holidays >
               <holiday  date="2014-05-17"/>
   
               <holiday  date="2014-05-18"/>
           </holidays>
       </run_time>
   </order>
   
   

JOC :Add holidays to Order

Any change into order from JOC is not persistent and will be lost after JobScheduler restart

1. Click on order menu, set run time
2. add holidays in to order
