Ability to "Run Once" list of schedules under IBM Cognos Administration -> Schedules and My Schedules and Subscriptions screens

Why is it useful?

Currently, in-order to run any enabled schedule once, administrators need to go into each schedule "Run the schedule once..." option. It is very time consuming run each schedule manually if there's a need to run list of schedules post planned or unplanned maintenance in production. It saves lot of time in running the schedules if there's an option to submit multiple schedules at once, similar to Enable/Disable buttons.

Who would benefit from it?

Administrators can save lot of time with this feature to rerun list of schedules post planned maintenance window. Helps clients to meet report delivery SLAs.

How should it work?

Button to "Run Once" list of schedules under IBM Cognos Administration -> Schedules page, and My Schedules and Subscription screen. List of schedules will run with saved prompt values.
