Scheduled Tasks

Question

Hi,

I need to execute custom commands on a quarterly and yearly base,
Is it possible to achieve that within Adaxes? Maybe with a scheduled task?

kind regards
Ingemar

It looks like in the UI you can't set something for that type of timeline. I had a script that schedules a task for a termination at a certain date/time. You could take the approach of scheduling it for a certain date/time and then after it runs it sets the next date. You might have some logic to workout though depending on your needs.

Thanks for referring to your post. The issue in my case is, that I do not have the date stored somewhere when the report needs to run.
And I like to avoid filling another two customAttributes per user object.
Hopefully there's a better way to achieve that

You can achieve that by creating a Scheduled Task that will be executed every 365 or 90 days:

1. Create a Scheduled Task.
2. In the Task Schedule page, select Daily.
3. Specify Every 365 days or Every 90 days.

looks good but if I understand correctly this will execute the report 365 days after the initial date the task was created but I need to have it send for example on December 31 each year or quarterly, meaning March, June, September, December
