Sawmill includes a built-in scheduler which you can use to schedule regular database builds,
database updates, database expirations, off-line HTML page generation, emailed reports, and
more. For example, you can use it to schedule a profile’s database to be updated every day at
midnight, so the statistics are never more than a day old. You could also schedule Sawmill to
generate HTML pages from your statistics every week, so you have an off-line browseable
HTML snapshot of your weekly statistics. The Scheduler can also update the database every
day, and after that, send you the statistics by email.
