3. The SmartJob Details dialog will open
a. If the current “Schedule Start” is acceptable
b. Click on the “Pin to Time” checkbox
c. Click on the “Save” button and a “Saved” message will appear
4. If you wish to pin to a different “Scheduled Start” time, select the task from the Gantt
a. Click on the “Move Task” icon
5. A Move dialog will open
