Scheduled Import "run after Parent" with Condition

[Meloper]

Hay,

i have a scheduled Import with a Condition.

I i use this without the Option run after Parent, it works an runs only on Friday

answer = checkTime();

function checkTime() {
    // should only run on Friday after Comparex Data - Load
    var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
    if ((gdt.getDayOfWeekLocalTime() == 5)) {
        gs.log("SAM Software Global SCCM Data - Load: Scheduled Job will be started!");
        return true;
    }
    gs.log("SAM Software Global SCCM Data - Load: Scheduled Job does not start today!");
    return false;
}

But now it has to be sure the this Import runs only after an other Import.

The Problem now is that always the Parent is complete (Parents runs daily), this Import runs also.

Why does this condition does not work with the Option run after Parent.

It should ran after Parent, but only on Friday.

Hi,

I believe since there is dependency of this import on Parent it ignores the condition and will directly run it once parent is complete.

Needs to be checked if this is OOB behavior.

@Ankur Bawiskar  : Will 'Execute pre-import script' works in this scenario?

HI,

The condition will be skipped if run after parent is selected.

Thanks,
