Why schedule your critical processes?

The reasons include:

• A need to avoid contention (collision) with other jobs or processes running at the same time
• A need for your job to run after another department's job because your job needs the data it provides
• A need for your job to run before another department's job because your job supplies the data it needs
• A desire to eliminate the need for manual processing
