Scheduled Import - More Refined Timing
Need more options for Scheduled Import timing.
Would be great to have something like cron-job.org, but our situation would be solved by having the "Base Run Time" with something more refined that :00, :15, :30, and :45.
Ideally, "Base Run Time" would be by minute (:00-:59), but every 5 minutes would be far better than it is right now.
We do inventory updates from manufacturer warehouse. We then have our own inventory that we add to it. Because we have to wait 15 minutes to run the next scheduled import, our inventory levels are incorrect for 15 minutes each time we update inventory.
I would think this would be super-simple to implement. Simply provide more numbers for the minute drop-down. It would also have the result of balancing server resources, since all stores wouldn't be running at one of four times each hour.

It will be more efficient if we could run a scheduled import by sending a URL request, that way the import will be run every time the URL is requested, it will not be set by time but when needed and it doesn't need to run constantly when there is no need to update
If Americommerce could provide a permanent URL like
/store/admin/tools/ScheduledImportList.aspx?scheduleImportID=xxx
Where xxx is the ID of the scheduled import, it can work the other way around too to run a scheduled export:
/store/admin/tools/ScheduledExportList.aspx?scheduledExportD=xxx
As long as we are logged in if this URL is called which can be done systematically or even by adding a bookmark to call it, there will be no need to do it manually
