Schedule a stored procedure to run periodically?

I need to run a task to update a table, periodically, using a stored procedure. Could you let me know if it is possible to schedule periodic tasks and to run any system command within stored procedure?

I use a 3rd party tool for my schedules. To be honest, it's not a great deal better than Sql Server Agent, but there are few perks to it. It's called System Scheduler.

You can use SQL Server Agent to create jobs that run at regularly-scheduled intervals. One of the job step types is executing a stored procedure.
