Automation Schedule - How long it ran for

I like how I can click the VIEW HISTORY button on the Automation Schedules (SM205020) screen to see when the Automation Schedule ran, how many records were processed, if there were any errors, etc.

But I’d also like to know how long the Automation Schedule took to run. Something like an Execution Completed column with a Date / Timestamp would be nice.

I’m trying to find out how long my Automation Schedules are taking. Some of them might only take 5 minutes, while others might run for over an hour. It’s important to know if some Automation Schedules are overlapping each other because sometimes you want to make sure that a certain Automation Schedule finishes before another certain Automation Schedule starts.

Does anyone know if there is a way to find how long an Automation Schedule ran for?

HI @TimRodman 

I don’t think it gives the time of the run. That would be a great idea though to create. I know I’ve had this asked a few times but have never found it. 

Something like the Import Scenario gives, how long it takes would be useful to know!

    Thanks @kandybeatty49. It’s nice to know that I’m not the only person out there who wants this functionality.

    Not sure how relevant this request might still be to you, but I couldn’t actually find a version raised as an Idea.

    I’ve raised an idea for this here:

    Hey ​@WillH and ​@Kandy Beatty, I think I found a technique that will work. I saw your post last night Will so I prototyped something last night and then did a Podcast episode on it today. Here’s the episode:
