Execution on the last day of month, montly.
Posted: 19 Oct 2021, 22:21
Hi, I used Cobian Backup a few years ago and left using it cause life situations.
Now, I'm back to use it for come tasks for office.
¿How can I see "next execution" from a task? It would help me a lot, to be sure I configured as I wish the execution.
Wide (much wide ) explanation:
I need to program 2 executions at the end of a month, specifically, the last day, ever (28th, 29th, 30th or 31th, depending of the month).
I just configured a test task, but I'm not sure how should be the scheduler parameters:
Option 1:
Because "Days of the week" is required for my Option 1, this is not functional for me. I don't need to execute tasks on last sunday or last friday of a month, I need it on last day of the month.
My Option 2 seems to be close, but doubtful, because of two scenarios:
Thanks a lot.

Option 1:
- Schedule Type=Monthly
- Select days of the week=True
- On day=Last
- Days of the week=Nothing selected <--This require select a day, at least
- Date/Time=5:00 pm
- Days Is Inactive
- Months Is Inactive
- Timer(minutes) Is Inactive
- Lower limit Is Inactive
- Upper limit Is Inactive
- Schedule Type=Monthly
- Select days of the week=False
- On day Is Inactive
- Days of the week Is Inactive
- Date/Time=5:00 pm
- Days=31
- Months Is Inactive
- Timer(minutes) Is Inactive
- Lower limit Is Inactive
- Upper limit Is Inactive

My Option 2 seems to be close, but doubtful, because of two scenarios:
- If I select only "31" on "Days" parameter, i don't know if the task wil be running on June 30th, September 30th, etc.
- If I select "28", "29", "30", "31" values on "Days" parameter, tha task will be running on days before the last day of a month, but this shall hinder other related areas at work.
Thanks a lot.
