Can I schedule my Action Flows to execute differently, according to the relative WORKING DAY of the month?

Question

Good afternoon,

We've set up an Action Flow that we want to run at different times, depending on the relative day of the month, ie:

If we're on the 5 First Work Days or 5 Last Work Days of the month, we want the Action flow to run 4x a day, at specific times;

If we're Not in the above mentioned interval (M+5 to M-5), we want the Action flow to run 1x a Day, at a specific time

I've managed to set up a filter that would work for Calendar Days, however I cannot seem to get a WorkDays based solution

Days Filter

Can anyone assist?

Thank you very much in advance!

Best Regards,

Good morning Guillermo,That is exactly what I have done!Basically it runs every hour and then goes through a PQL filter to determine if the current Date is within the 5 First Work Daysor5 Last Work Days of the month and if the Hour is defined as an Execution Hour.Depending on the PQL, the # of Bundles will be > 0 or not, which then moves to the E-mailing step (or not)Best Regards,Vasco Carona

AFAIK you can NOT do that with the scheduler.

One option that comes to my mind is to schedule it all days and at all the 4 possible moments, then use some logic element inside de Action Flow to determine if it is the condition is true

So if it is a "common" day, if the hour is not the scheduled, ignore. Only allow the execution when is the specific time for "common" days.

On the opposite, in the first or last 5 days of the month, you allow the execution at all the 4 slots defined.
