Specify the time interval in which Beebox will run all enabled automatic operations. When testing you may choose 10 seconds or 1 minute5 minutes. In production you would opt for 30 minutes or more.

For example source file "folder\marketing.docx" will be saved as "folder\marketing.prelim.docx".

Scripting
