Rather than guess when the previous job will complete, and then scheduling
the next at that time, you can use the BEMCMD utility as a POSTJOB command
to release the next job.

It should be in the \Utils dir on the install media. Do a "BEMCMD > BEMCMD.TXT"
to get a listing of all switches and their meanings.
