+Scheduled Job Update Set Capture Script
+
+This ServiceNow background script addresses a critical deployment challenge by programmatically capturing scheduled jobs in update sets. 
+By default, ServiceNow scheduled jobs are not automatically captured in update sets, making them difficult to migrate between environments. 
+This script uses the GlideUpdateManager2 API to force a scheduled job record into the current update set, enabling seamless deployment through standard update set processes.
