What does "Script Timeout" do with scheduled scripts (and why can't I change that value)?

Question

I'm trying to automatically resolve errors with a scheduled script but it appears it may be timing out. In Add/Edit Scheduled Script I see a field called "Script Timeout" with only 5 seconds but we can't find a way to adjust that value (even with admin rights). I'm searching through 26000 errors, so the search alone is more than 5 seconds. Do I understand correctly that the script times out if it takes longer than 5 seconds to complete? How do I adjust that value?

I'm in Qvera version 3.0.44. Does a newer version allow me to change that value?

Answer 1

In order to change the "Script Timeout" you would need to select one of the three options:

Run script before channel starts

Run script before channel stops

Run script after channel stops

Thank you! I get it now and when I use one of those options I am able to change the value too.
