Expire or Delete a Scheduled Batch Steps

This information includes how to expire or delete a scheduled batch.

If there is a batch, or batches, that you no longer want to run automatically, but you want to keep the batch, you have an option to expire the batch.  Expiring the batch keeps the batch, but stops it from running. You can also delete a batch if it is no longer needed and will not be needed in the future.  Click Here to access a short step-by-step video about this subject.
