### Accessing the task information tables

JReport Server collects task information and manages it in a set of tables.

- Tasks that are scheduled
  - Scheduled table
    Shows the status information of scheduled tasks that are waiting to be performed, such as task ID, whether the task is enabled, previous running time, and next running time.
  - Running table
    Shows the status information of tasks that are currently being performed, such as task ID, time when the task was started, and engine status.
  - Completed table
    Shows the status information of tasks that have already been performed, such as task ID, time when the task was completed, whether or not the task was successfully performed, result files, and error messages.
- Tasks that are performed in the Run, Advanced Run or Background Run mode
  - Background Tasks table
    Shows the status information of the tasks submitted using the Run, Advanced Run, or Background Run mode, such as report tab names, report path and name, catalog path and name, running format, time when the task was started/completed, time elapsed since the task was performed, and the status of the task.

To access a specific table, on the JReport Console page, click My Tasks on the system toolbar, then click the corresponding tab. The following shows the columns that are displayed in each table in detail.

Tips:

- Some columns in the tables are not shown by default. To have them displayed, switch to the table, click Preferences on the task bar of the My Tasks page (for the Scheduled table, click Tools > Preferences on the task bar), check the corresponding items in the Preferences dialog, then click OK to save the settings.
- You can make the records in each of the tables sorted ascendingly or descendingly by any column title. To do this, just click on the underlined column title on which you want the records to be sorted, you will then find a sort icon appear right after the title, showing the sort direction.
