Use a cron of * 10 2-7 * 1-5 but also add logic to your SPL to short-circuit your search so that on those days that aren't the 2nd business day don't run. See my unaccepted answer here:

I want it to run every 2nd business day of every month at 2:00 PM. It should exclude weekends, holidays..

Did you even bother to read the answer? It is a flexible answer that when tuned will do exactly what you need it to do. Ignore the OP subject and look at the answer.

Hi @bennybunny09 Please use the below cron expression to schedule your alert.

* 10 2-7 * 1-5

Every 2nd business day of the month @10 AM will run the alert/report.
