If the Scheduled Job's state in the Schedule Log is Red, what does that indicate?

When the Scheduled Job's state in the Schedule Log is indicated in red, it signifies that the job is overdue for execution. This typically means that a job that was supposed to run at a particular scheduled time has not executed as intended. Monitoring the state of scheduled jobs is crucial for maintaining the functionality of automated tasks in ServiceNow, as overdue jobs can lead to delays in processes and a backlog of tasks that need to be completed.

In this context, other states would be indicated in different colors; for example, a successful job might be marked in green, while a job scheduled for future execution would typically not be overdue and would likely be represented in a different color as well. Additionally, if a job has never executed, it would not indicate that it is overdue but rather that it has not started, which is a distinct state from simply being overdue.
