# Managing Scheduled Integration Scans

These are the sources which have been defined and mapped to be integrated with ASM Core.

You can view all integration schedules, that is, the scheduled scans configured to run on sources.

## Scans are run sequentially - the Order you Specify is Important

Scans are run on each source in the order defined here, with the top-most source being the first source to be scanned. This means that data imported from a source may be overwritten by data imported from a source lower on the list. If a source that has been added to a schedule is later designated as Inactive, it will not be scanned.
{% endhint %}

1. Select the **Sources** tab to add the sources for the schedule. Select **Add**, select a source and click **OK**. (You can also remove a source and change the order of the sources on which the schedule will run.)
2. Select the **Notifications** tab to add the people who need to be notified by email when a scan completes. Click **Add**. The **Select Schedule Notification Recipients** window appears. Find and add the analysts, IPK and Workflow groups, or email addresses you wish to receive notifications for this schedule. To remove a recipient, select the added recipient and click **Remove**.
3. Select the **Activity** tab to view the status of any scans which were run for this schedule. You can click the  toolbar button to update the Activity, for instance, if you wish to view the status of the current scan.
4. Select the **Save and Refresh** icon to save the changes.
