By selecting the options Most Frequent from the Job Trend Type options on the Job Trends view, you can see the jobs that run most frequently in your environment. 

To customize this trending chart according to your requirements, you can define the following options:

• Select the time range in the Trend Duration drop-down options. Choose to view the information by Day, Week, Month, or Year. 

• Filter the information by Instance, Job Name, Category, and Duration.  
  For example, you can select to view the Most Frequent Jobs from last week for Instance B or the Most Frequent Jobs from last day for those jobs whose duration is between 1 and 2 minutes.  

  Consider that when you select a time range for the Trend Duration option, SQL Enterprise Job Manager displays job trends based on jobs collected over the past selected time range and forecasts this information for the same period of time in the future.
