When you click on Run Now button the task will be immediately executed with the specified
parameters. You could see the task progress bar in the Tasks view and in the Dashboard view. This is
your choice if you want to execute this task just once. The result of this task will be shown in the
Dashboard or can be checked through the Logs view.
Clicking the Save button results in saving the task in the tasks list (View->Tasks). This is more
convenient if you plan to run this task manually later from the Tasks view page or run this task
