How can you have the urgent requirement AND ask why one would schedule  :o ?

Some reasons:

• Reports are refreshed directly after a Datawarehouse update, making sure there are there at the first moment
• Reports take a lot of time to generate, so run them in the wee hours to spare resources
• You want to refresh and mail the reports to recipients on a regular basis

Take a look at chapter 10 of the Cognos Connection user guide for information on scheduling
