How to set timer based on time of day instead of data change event.

Robert Francis

I need to set a timer to run a process daily, when I create the timmer the only options is to run the process based on a data changing event.  In my case, no data has changed so how would I trigger the process?

Hallo RMF,

 

you can set a variable e.g, dtmNextRunTIme to the desired time and then use this variable in the timed action property instead of the default on.

 

On the When Action Completed Event Handler you can then calculate the dtmNextRunTime to 1 day after the previous run. if you have a loop back action on your stage this will run every day and will not leave the stage the folder is currently on until you move the folder to another stage.

 

I hope this is what you need.
