To set the submit time:

In the job editor, click the Submission tab to display the Submission tabbed page.

From the Submit Time options at the bottom of the page, choose one of the following options:

Immediately

The job executes in the background of your local machine immediately or is submitted to the batch queue immediately.

Wait

The job executes in the background of your local machine after a waiting period. Type the waiting period in the hours and minutes fields. (This option is available only on UNIX platforms. In addition, it is not available if the job is being submitted to a batch queue.)

At

The job executes at a time that you specify in either the background of your local machine or in a batch queue. Click Tip to the right of the At field for information on what syntax to use when specifying a time. If you want the job to run in a batch queue at the specified time, you must configure the queue to accept a time variable using the after_prefix queue parameter in the ABAQUS environment file. For more information, see “Defining analysis batch queues,” Section 4.2 of the ABAQUS Installation and Licensing Guide. (The At option is available for jobs that run in either the background or in a batch queue on UNIX platforms. However, the At option is available only for jobs that execute in a batch queue on Windows platforms.)
