Choose how a report schedule handles missed run times

Review whether past scheduled periods should be skipped or generated one at a time.

Updated 2026-11-11

Report schedules offer a missed-run choice: skip past run times or generate missed periods one at a time. Select the behavior that matches the review process before authorizing the schedule. The choice affects how a delayed or interrupted calendar is handled.

Review the saved timezone, first run and end date along with the missed-period setting. Upcoming complete periods shows the reporting periods and run times that the calendar represents. A repeated local hour uses the UTC instant displayed by the schedule.

Generating a missed period does not make its report human-reviewed. Inspect the generated run and its source evidence before using it as an approved result. A skipped past time likewise should not be described as a completed report.

If the schedule's timing needs correction, pause it before editing the settings. Record the reason for the change and review authorization again as required. Keep generation history available so the team can distinguish a planned skip, a failed attempt and a successfully retained but unreviewed run.
