Create custom time-based triggers for Flow Designer - every 2nd Tuesday of the Month

[Peter Williams]

Hello all

Happy New Years.

i have a requirement to create a custom time base trigger for Flow designer

what i need to do is:

1) have the trigger run every 2nd Tuesday of the month

2) have another trigger to run every 2nd Tuesday of a specific month ( ex. 2nd Tuesday of Jan. or 2nd Tuesday of Oct.)

i know that i can set the trigger to run daily but how do i calculate to for the other items above

any and all help is appricated

How would i incorporate this into the Flow Designer to check?

i am looking at the Scheduled Jobs in System Definations

i think it could work but i am not able to get the condition to work correctly

here is what i have

here is the condition script

// Condition Script

(function checkCondition() {

    // Get the current date

    var currentDate = new GlideDateTime();

    // Check if it's Tuesday

    if (currentDate.getDayOfWeek() == 3) { // Tuesday is represented as 3 in ServiceNow

        // Check if it's between the 8th and 14th day of the month

        if (isSecondTuesday(currentDate)) {

            // Condition is met

            return true;

        }

    }

    // Condition is not met

    return false;

})();

// Function to check if the date is the second Tuesday of the month

function isSecondTuesday(date) {

    var dayOfMonth = date.getDayOfMonth();

    // Check if it falls between the 8th and 14th day of the month

    return dayOfMonth >= 8 && dayOfMonth <= 14;

}

cant see to get it to work correctly
