Ability to allow schedule to fire based on other criteria

[Dexter_Whelan_SAS]

Having a design requirement that would be easily solved if scheduler could initiate based on the presence of work items in a target work queue.
Example:
Fire schedule every 15 minutes IF( [Workqueue1].ContainsWorkItems(>0) )

This would allow a scheduler to check every 15 minutes for the target work queue ('Workqueue1') has a work item greater than zero. 

Some additions to this could include filtering on tags/status/ attempts or other work queue related data points.

Good Idea: I would like to add to your example:
"Fire schedule every 15 minutes IF( [Workqueue1].ContainsWorkItems(>0) AND schedule is not already running"

I wouldn't stop at an exhaustive list... Why not just add a query builder for this?
I.e. Allow building the criteria set based on the selected content from within the wizard.
Something in the likes of below:

Thank you @Dexter_Whelan_SAS ,

I see this hasn’t reached the threshold yet, however I’m changing this to Under Consideration as event based triggers such as, when there is an item in queue, is in our current thinking.

We will switch this to Planned, if we have choose to publish the change on the Product Roadmap.

Are there any other triggers we should be considering?

Kind regards
