Scan Data to Trigger Tasks

In addition to the fine-grained scheduling facility, IDM provides a task scanning mechanism. The task scanner lets you scan a set of properties with a complex query filter, at a scheduled interval, and then launches a script on the objects returned by the query.

For example, the task scanner can scan all managed/user objects for a "sunset date" and can invoke a script that launches a "sunset task" on the user object when this date is reached.
