[Koha-devel] Koha Improvement idea for the Task scheduler feature

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Ola,

sorry for the late reply. Would you mind adding the screenshots to the
existing bug for the task scheduler?

*Bug 3935*
<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3935> -
Schedule tasks periodically

I think they could be useful as mock-ups/ideas for a future development.
