Batch Jobs and Email Frequency

Batch jobs function similarly for the Global Scheduler and the Smart Scheduler (from the Event record). The primary difference is that if the Email Notification Settings Consolidated email frequency is set to “Once in a day,” the batch volume for the Global Scheduler can be much higher when many record updates occur in a single day. This scenario will not occur with the Smart Scheduler.

If you want to update the Consolidated email frequency field, go to the Smart Scheduler Admin tab, click the Configuration Settings icon in the left-hand navigation, and set Consolidated email frequency to “Once in a day.”
