Tasks traditionally update the database, therefore we are currently unable to run a task multiple times simultaneously.
It would be useful in cases where there is no updating of the database to be able to lift this restriction.
An example would be the printing of reports.
We have a couple of sites that run tasks to print all […]

Currently, Maze needs […]

James’s response that if I knew the call (program script or command line) that […]
Security on some tables is inappropriate
Some of the tables in the Maze Standard Database have an inappropriate security setting meaning if one uses that as a basis of a standard installation then the security would need to be changed to a more appropriate one. Currently there is no affective security on DR Sundry Debtors (all users of the Maze database […]
