I am stuck in an issue related to running code unit after every minute using job queue or task scheduler but i don't know how to create settings with time units so that it runs as soon as i deploy it on sandbox.

I have written code unit which will send customer details on the provided email.

This is the code unit code.

Job Queue Entry Screenshot:

And i have created setting in the job queue to run this background job after every 1 minute as soon as i deploy. While i am creating the job queue entry the time is 19:25 and i set the time let's suppose Earliest Time: 06-12-2022 19:30 to run. But it doesn't run on the same day and time i defined in the job queue entry.

I am new to business central and trying luck to get this work done. I have also tried this link: https://robertostefanettinavblog.com/2019/04/25/testing-jobs-and-reports-scheduling-with-a-date-formula/ to enter time.
Kindly let me know the steps so that i may know where i am doing wrong.

Help would be appreciated.

I am done with it actually the time the server was using is different from my current time that's why the job was not running. What i did was just run the job and got the email in which there is a time embed in the body text. there i found the time is different and then i recreated the job entry and set the time according to server time and as soon as i deployed it started sending me the emails.

you can set the date to today with a time of 17:10 for example, but set the jon in on hold otherwise it won't let you change it

, or force the execution like this:

Hi i had already done this but it didn't work that's why i posted question to take help.

In fact if i choose option "Run Once Foreground" to test my code unit it worked and i got emails.

But when once i created the job queue entry and set it to ready status but it didn't run. What might be the issue?
