Hi,

Schedule means calendar or clock against which something runs - for
example, a schedule might be 'every Friday at 10AM'.

Step (assuming this is coming from part of pgAgent) refers to a single
part of a job: for example:

Job 1
=====
Step 1: DELETE FROM TABLE WHERE ID > 1000;
Step 2: VACUUM ANALYZE;
Step 3: CREATE INDEX...
