You cannot create a schedule on the Scheduled Jobs page, but you can use it to audit what exists, measure your Scheduled Apex usage against the 100-job limit, and remove jobs you no longer need.
- Open the page
From Setup, type Scheduled Jobs into the Quick Find box and select Scheduled Jobs. The full list of timed jobs in the org loads.
- Create a Scheduled Apex view
Click Create New View, add a filter where Job Type equals Scheduled Apex, and save. The row count of this view is your current usage against the 100-job ceiling.
- Identify owners and purpose
Scan the Submitted By and Submitted Date columns. Flag any job owned by a deactivated user or any Job Type you do not recognize for follow-up.
- Delete what is stale
Click the Del link next to a job that has no reason to run. The schedule is removed and, for Scheduled Apex, the slot is freed for reuse.
Filter a custom view to Scheduled Apex, Dashboard, or Snapshot so you can review one category of timed job at a time.
The user the job runs as; deactivating this user can stop or break the job, so reassign or reschedule critical jobs first.
Unschedules a single job permanently. It does not undo work already performed on earlier runs.
- The page is read-only for creating schedules; build new schedules in Apex, the dashboard subscription UI, or the snapshot setup, not here.
- Deleting a schedule only stops future runs. It does not reverse data changes the job made on previous executions.
- A job owned by a deactivated user may quietly stop running, so check the Submitted By column before you deactivate anyone.
- Scheduled Jobs shows future work only. To confirm a recent run actually succeeded, check the Apex Jobs page instead.
