Hi asd

be careful with the time field and read first the following article: https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0782227

Kind regards

Hi @Maik Skoddow 

Will this scheduled job run only once in a year? However I'm getting only 2 options for DateTime function in our instance as getMonthLocalTime() and getMonthUTC(). Will it work?

Thanks,

Hema

Hello,

Please configure it as below:-

The script you need to right in the condition is:-

answer = checkCondition();

function checkCondition(){
var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
var month = gdt.getMonthLocalTime();
var dayOfMonth = gdt.getDayOfMonthLocalTime();

// if month equals to 1 i.e. January
if(month == 1){

if(dayOfMonth == 1){
return true;
}
else{
return false;
}
}
}

Please mark answer correct/helpful based on impact.

does this also set to only go when the clock is 01:00?
