Trigger a flow on a specific day once a year

I have a request from a user that they want to trigger a request on September 1st every year.

I can not figure out how to do it in Flow designer 

I have tried the odd idea of having to variables on the catalog item a start and finish variable.

Those varibles are used to set a condition for creating the request (in the lack of other means).

I can get the condition to evaluate true if I use Run start date/time is at or after start (start has the default value of september 1st 00:00:01) that works.

But if I choose Run start date/time at or before finish (default value September 1st 23:59:00) it evaluate false.

 

Is there a bug in Flow Designer or have I missed something.

(I know you can script a solution, but I want to avoid scripts)

I was also going to suggest that you just do the same steps in a subflow, then call that subflow from a scheduled job using the code block.
