I have few business cases when I think will be good to improve scheduler process. 1st Case Bot should work every 5 minutes, but only during first 5 days in the month, every month. Business days are calculated based on USA calendar. Bot is now in deployment process and first run will be in May.
2, Case - main rule is that bot should work every 1h during first 5 Business days every month, but there are some months that should work few additional dates (Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct). this is done manually , but based on Polish calendar 3rd case - again every 5 minutes within below days. USA Calendar Every month bot has two periods of work (5 days , then break , and next 4-6 days). January- 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, 20, 23, 24, 25 February- 10, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 23, 24, 27, 28 March- 10, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 23, 24, 27, 28 April- 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 20, 21, 24, 25, 26 May- 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26 June- 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 23, 26, 27 July- 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 20, 21, 24, 25, 26 August- 10, 11, 14, 15, 16, 22, 23, 24, 25, 28 September- 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 20, 21, 22, 25, 26 October- 12, 13, 16, 17, 23, 24, 25, 26 November-13, 14, 15, 16, 22, 23, 24, 27, 28 December- 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 20, 21, 22, 25, 26, 27
The only option which I am aware is to create dedicated calendar for this bot (with holiday of all not green marked days) and then schedule it every few 5 minutes/1 hours. Every year in November I am receiving expected calendars for next year. And then I am going to calendar, and adding a lot of holidays, day by date. Example of my calendar: This is very time consuming and manual work.
Do you think about possibility to add to monthly scheduler - that bot can run within first 5 BD every 5 minutes/1 hours? or maybe via periods - first period 1-5 BDs, next period 9-12 BDs, and also every 5minutes/1hour. Also, would be good to manage some exceptions, that normally bot will be working first 5 BDs, but in some months more days. After adding periods, would be good to have simulation of calendar - based on created rules (first 5BDs), country calendar (USA), press one button and will display in which days bot will be working, or will not be working, Now I can only create on monthly schedule that bot can work ex First BD day, but just one time? Or I have create own calendar and have to exclude as holiday over 200 days.
