# Determining when a polling automation will execute

To determine the next time a polling automation will execute, mouse over the countdown schedule timer. A tooltip will appear with the date and time the polling automation will be queued for processing by the system:

**Important: Whether or not the automation will actually be executed at that exact point in time will depend on the system's processing load. There may be a delay after the automation is placed into the system's work queue until the automation actually gets executed.**

**Another consideration whether or not the automation is actually executed at that point in time are any defined execution windows:** [Edit execution windows](https://help.apiant.com/edit-execution-windows?hsLang=en)
