1. A computer implemented method to create a non-gaming machine specific assignment template for a job to be executed at a later time by a casino gaming machine download and configuration system, the method comprising:

  • generating, by a download and configuration system processor, a list of executable jobs that, when executed, modify content stored on a gaming machine, the list of executable jobs including at least one of;

    a download job to transfer content to the gaming machine and a configuration job to configure the gaming machine;

    causing the display of the generated list of executable jobs;

    receiving on an input device communicably coupled to the download and configuration system processor, at least one user input indicative of a selection of at least one executable job from the displayed list of executable jobs, the selected at least one executable job for inclusion in a non-gaming machine specific assignment template;

    generating a display output in a first window, the display output in the first window including a list of proposed assignment conditions associated with the respective ones of the selected at least one executable job included in the assignment template;

    receiving, via the input device, at least one user input indicative of user-selected assignment conditions associated with respective ones of the selected at least one executable job;

    generating a display output in a second window, the display output in the second window including a list of proposed modifications based at least in part on the selected at least one executable job and the selected assignment conditions associated with respective ones of the selected at least one executable job included in the assignment template; and

    saving to a processor-readable, nontransitory storage medium communicably coupled to the download and configuration system processor, data representative of the non-gaming machine specific assignment template for later execution by a casino download and configuration system that modifies content on a number of user-identified gaming machines according to a schedule.
