Hi,
I want to schedule the report at following intervals
9/1 - 11/30
12/1 - 2/28(29) (this is an odd one because of leap years)
3/1 - 5/31
6/1 - 8/31
How can I do this using the cron schedule? Thanks in advance!
Thanks,
Deepthi
Assuming you want your quarterly report to run as following:
Quarter range ### Date on which Report should be run
9/1 - 11/30 ### 12/01
12/1 - 2/28(29) ### 03/01
(this is an odd one because of leap years)
3/1 - 5/31 ### 06/01
6/1 - 8/31 ### 09/01
Try the cron schedule as this (running every quarter, as above schedule, at 3 AM in the morning
0 3 1 3,6,9,12 *
Your search's time range would be -3mon@mon to @mon
.
See the corresponding scheduled data here: https://crontab.guru/#0_3_1_3,6,9,12_* (click on next hyperlink to see more dates)
Is it OK to run the report at midnight of the first day of the next quarter? That would translate to 0 0 1 */3 *
.
Then you just need to define the timerange for your report correctly, I guess earliest=-3mon@mon latest=@mon
should do the trick?
