# Manage Schedules

As an administrator, you may create, run, delete, stop, edit, or resume schedules through the Schedules page in the Pentaho User Console.

After your users scheduled their reports, as the Pentaho administrator, you can edit, pause, or delete that schedule. You can also change the frequency of the report, change parameters, or adjust email settings. To distribute reports using emails, make sure you have configured the email server.

You can also prevent users from scheduling specific files or reports, and control when schedules can run by setting up periods of time where scheduling is not allowed. Setting up these blockout times helps in performing administrative functions, such as system maintenance or managing server traffic during peak usage times.
