Pause or Stop Schedules

Stop orders with active schedules, either temporarily or permanently, using controls on the Orders page.

  • Stop: halts an active schedule permanently.
  • Pause: places an active schedule on a temporary pause, until it is resumed. Order runs in progress continue to execute, but no new order runs are generated.
  • Play: resumes a paused schedule. Scheduled order runs missed during the paused time are not run.
