To check if today (current date) is the first Saturday of the month.

[Chandler2]

I have a scheduled job set to run daily but I need to check in condition script that if today is first Saturday of the current month? Then only run the scheduled job.

Can someone please share the code needs to be used for that in the condition area?

Thanks!

Hi Chandler,

May 7th is the first Saturday on this month. I've changed to script to "dayOfMonth <= 7" from "dayOfMonth < 7" to include 7th.

var today = '2022-05-07 00:00:10';
var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
gdt.setDisplayValue(today);

var dayOfWeek = gdt.getDayOfWeekLocalTime();
var dayOfMonth = gdt.getDayOfMonthLocalTime();

if(dayOfWeek == 6 && dayOfMonth <= 7 ){
	gs.info(gdt.getDisplayValue() + " is first Saturday");
} else {
  gs.info(gdt.getDisplayValue() + ' is not first Saturday');
}

Execution result:

Test by changing 'today' value.

case 1: today = '2022-05-07 00:00:00'

*** Script: 2022-05-07 00:00:10 is first Saturday

case 2: today = '2022-06-03 00:00:00

*** Script: 2022-06-03 00:00:00 is not first Saturday
