Configure import schedules

In a Flexible schedule, the "Start Hour" is the first hourly block when the schedule will run, and the "End Hour" is the last hourly block when it will run. So, a Start Hour of "12am" and a End Hour of "11pm" would mean "all day." (This would be the same as leaving the Start Hour and End Hour blank.)

When finished, click Save Changes.
