Mongoose - Schedule Background Task

Bruno Maia

I have a requirement for a task that should be executed periodically (every 10 minutes, for example). I could achieve the necessary behaviour using ION, but I would prefer to keep the solution within Mongoose.

I have found a "Background Task Definitions" form where I have added a record that should be configured to execute an IDO Method.

I have also found a "Active Background Tasks" From, where a record exists. This record has configurations for its "Recurrence". It seems to be configured to run every 4 hours every day. However, I can't find a way to add my background task to this form.

Is it possible to set up my Background Task to run periodically within Mongoose?

Bruno, you can schedule tasks in the background if you create or modify a form to submit the task. See the documentation on how to add a background task to a form: https://docs.infor.com/mg/2025.x/en-us/mongooseolh/default.html?helpcontent=mgaug_mg/lsm1454147668807.html

There is a whole chapter on background tasks: https://docs.infor.com/mg/2025.x/en-us/mongooseolh/default.html?helpcontent=mgaug_mg/lsm1454147657138.html
