Here is an example: 1. Create a PL\/SQL procedure that contains the SQL statement you want to schedule for execution. For instance, create a procedure to insert a record into a table.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"post-pre\">CREATE&nbsp;OR&nbsp;REPLACE&nbsp;PROCEDURE&nbsp;insert_record&nbsp;AS\r\nBEGIN\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;INSERT&nbsp;INTO&nbsp;your_table&nbsp;(column1,&nbsp;column2)<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;VALUES&nbsp;('value1',&nbsp;'value2');<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;COMMIT;\r\nEND;<\/p><\/pre>\n<p>Create a job using DBMS_SCHEDULER to define the time and frequency for scheduled execution. For instance, create a job to run the insert record process every day at 10 AM.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"post-pre\">BEGIN<p><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB&nbsp;(<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;job_name&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=&gt;&nbsp;'insert_record_job',<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;job_type&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=&gt;&nbsp;'PLSQL_BLOCK',<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;job_action&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=&gt;&nbsp;'BEGIN&nbsp;insert_record;&nbsp;END;',<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;start_date&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=&gt;&nbsp;SYSTIMESTAMP,<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;repeat_interval&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=&gt;&nbsp;'FREQ=DAILY;&nbsp;BYHOUR=10',<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;enabled&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=&gt;&nbsp;TRUE);\r\nEND;<\/p><\/pre>\n<p>The repeat_interval parameter in the above code is used to define the frequency of job execution.
