Cron trigger advanced

[RENAUD_Jean-Christophe]

Hello,
I’m trying to edit a trigger that will be run every 1 first day of month except if it’s a monday (in this case I don’t need to trigger the process).
Can anyone give me the solution to do that in the orchestrator ?
Thanks a lot.

Every Month 1st

0 0 12 1 1/1 ? *

Except Monday

0 0 12 ? * TUE,WED,THU,FRI,SAT,SUN *

Hi @THIRU_NANI , thanks for reply, I tried the syntax “0 0 12 ? * TUE,WED,THU,FRI,SAT,SUN *” in http://www.cronmaker.com/, apparently the cron will be executed daily except on mondays ; in the orchestrator it shows next run is tomorrow.
Regards.

Hello @RENAUD_Jean-Christophe

I don’t think it’s possible.

You can combine a non working days calendar with a cron for the first of each month (see above from @THIRU_NANI)

Then take a look here:

Cron Expression For Specific Days Of Month AND Specific Days Of The Week

Hey @david.kameka Welcome back to the forums You won’t be able to achieve this with a single cron expression (happy to be wrong). You will need to combine the cron expression you have created in your post (0 30 6 ? * 2-6 *) with a non working days Calendar. The calendar will need to be setup exclude the jobs running on the 1st of each month. In summary, these two elements combined will make the job run at 6:30am Monday to Friday minus the 1st of each month because of the Non …

Another option is this. Add logic to your solution to not run on Mondays?

Crone expression to run on every month first saturday

Hi @Kavya_Mamidishetti2 As per @codemonkee’s post you cannot add conditions/logic within a cron expression so you won’t be able to achieve this with a single cron expression. You have a few options but the cleanest might be just to insert some logic into your code at “Init” like the attached workflow. Main.xaml (16.5 KB). [image]. THen you will need a cron (0 0 0 1,8 * ? *) to run on 1st day and 8th of the month. Hopefully this helps

Hopefully this helps.
