Specifies the number of seconds to wait before the job queue entry runs again after a failure. This field is only relevant if the Maximum No. of Attempts to Run is greater than 0.

The value can be an integer from 0 to 3600. If you set the value to 0, the job queue entry will run again immediately after the failure.

While a job queue entry is waiting to run again, its status will remain as In Progress. Also, the error message that occurred in the previous run is saved in the job queue log. To view the error message, choose Show Error.

For example, this field is used with synchronization jobs for Microsoft Dynamics CRM integration, where the Maximum No. of Attempts to Run is set to 10 and the Rerun Delay (sec.) is set to 30. This set up a retry period of 5 minutes, which allows for temporary connection issues to be resolved automatically without the job entering the failure state.
