The Heartbeat for Job Queue Entries defines the job queue entries that should be included in the notification.
Using a dedicated job queue entry to send the notification completes the setup.
It should be noted that the intent is not for this heartbeat notification to be sent in a short cycle.
This solution is intended to check the job queue entries once a day and send a notification to verify that the job queue is running and that the important entries are clocked in and that no entries are set unexpected to errors or on hold.
If no notification is sent, it can be assumed that there is a problem also.
From the Job Queue Heartbeat Setup the notification job queue entry can be created as suggested.
It is clocked in for 1 time per day with its own job queue category.
