Need help on date fuction

[JPSS]

A task needs to be created on 7 th jan ,April,July,oct (Each Quarter).

How can i find the next trigger date  compared to today

You can create scheduled Job that will run on daily basis,  in scripting part you would need to write code for date validation , if date matches to your criteria then create task

Hi @JPSS create a schedule job which runs daily and in condition field place this script

var gdt = new GlideDate(); //creates new date object

var m = gdt.getMonth();  //extracts the month

var d = gdt.getDayOfMonth();  //extracts the day

if((m == "4" || m == "7" || m == "10") & (d == "7")){

    answer = true;

}

Hello @JPSS 

Assuming you are using scheduled job , you can try below approach:

1.Create a scheduled job which will run monthly on 7th and it will check if month is Jan,April,July and Oct

Use condition to achieve this...

(function() {
    // 1=Jan,4=April,7=July,10=oct
    var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
    var getMonth = gdt.getMonth();  //get current month
    if (getMonth == 1 || getMonth == 4 || getMonth == 7 || getMonth == 10) {
        return true;
    }

})();
