Hi Ajith

I have few doubts

> Do the bot is to scheduled on hourly/minutely basis or daily basis

> Do you want the bot not trigger the process at all or just not to process the cases in mean time of 1 am to 3 pm of 4th Sunday

If you can give the above data , will try to understand

Install the login agent.
Log in as RR user every 4th Sunday at 3:00pm.
Log out RR users every 4th Sunday at 1:00am.

Hi Ajithran,

the solution depends on the way you scheduled your process. If your schedule is for example hourly you can implement a check after the process start, if it is the 4th sunday between 1am and 3pm. If true then end the process.

Best regards

Hi @Ajithran Balasubramanian ,

There could be two ways to schedule the bot:

1) Implement the logic within the code to check the 4th sunday and the current local time. If the time is between 1 am to 3pm then stop the bot and don't perform any action. But in this scenario, the bot needs to be scheduled on hourly basis or so in order to trigger the bot

2) You can schedule your bot for the full year and then manually change the settings for the 4th sunday every month. This might not be the correct way to do it but it's one time activity.

As per your requirement i guess should have two schedules as suggested by other members

first schedule to run on hourly basis with a logic to check in the start and before get next item if using queue for time and 4th Sunday
second schedule for logout and login process on every 4th Sunday starts at 1 am and 3 pm respectively with login agent installed.

the suggestions are already made by other members, hope you get a better approach

The best way would be to add a small logic in your code itself to do this check. Also, you can expose the X count of Sunday as Environment Variable.
