Does the trigger page show when you open the scheduler directly from Windows?

Type "schedule" in the start menu search and open the scheduler. Then click to "Create Task..." (not Create Basic Task.)

If that scheduler instance does have the trigger page, then that suggests something odd is happening when EG opens the scheduler.

If that scheduler instance does NOT have the trigger page, then check with your Windows System admin. There may be an OS setting or permission that is blocking your access.

Thanks

You can also schedule using PowerShell.

Scripts can be seen here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42801733/creating-a-scheduled-task-which-uses-a-specific-event-log-entry-as-a-trigger

If you don't have security, PowerShell should tell you directly.

Thank you, Mark.
When I'm openning the scheduler directly from Windows I see the trigger.
I can't find this trigger directly in EG 8.3, do I need to contact my SAS admin for reinstalltion ?

I recommend:

*
Opening a support track with SAS Tech Support
*
Include an EG log file of a session where you try to create/modify a job and the trigger page is missing.

Until a cause and resolution are found, I think you will need to create the job in EG, and then edit the trigger directly in the Windows Scheduler. When scheduling a job, EG just opens the Windows scheduler. So, it is very puzzling that the Trigger tab is not shown in both cases.
