I would like to see some way of setting timer trigger like
the first Monday that's not at holiday in each month
or
the third Thursday in each month,
or even
the first Monday after the secoond to last Sunday in each month.

At the moment I have to create 12 timer triggers for each job. And you can't even copy them, I have just counted there are 25 mouseclicks required to set a timer trigger to run one time at a fixed point in time. That 300 clicks 🤬 to create a schedule for a job to run once a month on the last Friday in each month at 10.30 AM

Hi vistisen,

What you could use is the time exception list.
In here you can setup dates when jobs cant be triggered.

In your job you configure it to use the time exceptions.
You job triggers are a lot easier to configure and you'll use less clicks to do it.

You also can use the .NET API to copy the time triggers for you, but you need some program experiance.

Regards,
Erik

I might be missing something, but I can't see that it is quicker to define 351 days a year the job shouldn't run rather than the 12 it should. In other programs I use cron style expressions for example
06.01Am on the second to last workday of each month in 2012 becomes

(0 0 1 6 27 3,8,11 * * * * 2012|0 0 1 6 28 1,5 * * * * 2012|0 0 1 6 29 2,10 * * * * 2012|0 0 1 6 30 0,4,6,7,9 * * * * 2012)


maybe this is a feature for VisualCron
