It is not within the nature of a cron

Yes it will on weekends too if the the two days of month comes in weekends.

There is no cron expression for last two working days.

Hope you understand!!

@marquezd

You cannot do with cron…instead achedule it for last 4 days using cron…and in process include a logic to check if the current run date is part of last two working days …if yes run…else just stop and do not proceed

Cheers

As there a several options to handle this scenario pick up the most preferred one:

  • Bot/Process is deciding if running or stop-waiting
  • automated Scheduler update by using ORC REST API
  • Starter Queue Item

just to mention a few.

The ratings of the approach ranges from Bot allocation, unneeded idle time, skillset fitting etc
