Start timer event supporting multiple times

natedawg

Hi,

Quick question,
Is it possible to specify in a <b>single</b> start timer event following:
- execute a job every 6 hours except on Sundays and last Friday in a month

If it is pls point me to some good documentation of values specified in Time cycle.

Kind regards
A.H.

Hi,

But can I specify more than one cron expression in a single start timer event?

No, but "- execute a job every 6 hours except on Sundays and last Friday in a month" should in theory be doable with cron … just don't ask me how, I always have to google those things

Thx for the answer. I am aware that a single cron exp may cover a lot of date specs but I have to automatically transform custom workflow system to activiti, including scheduling. A single process may be triggered by a dozen of date specs, hence my question regarding multiple cron expressions.

Kind regards

In the next version there is support for multiple start timer events, which sounds like a solution to your problem.

Sounds great. Thx for the info
