  • 1.  Schedule question

    Posted Jan 06, 2025 03:46 PM
    When a job runs Monday but the external dependency is from Friday night, how do we tell the job to skip the ext dep on Monday? (and if Monday is a holiday to skip Tuesday)?

    There's probably multiple ways to go about this.

    Off the top...

    • Will a 'after last workflow execution run' dependency work in this case?  (Your details are a bit scant here.  I gather the job and the external dependencies run on different schedules?)
    • You could apply calendar conditions to your external dependency so that it can get skipped altogether when applicable.
    • You could built separate workflows for different days of the week (if appropriate) -- one with the external dependency, and one without.

    I can probably come up with some other approaches if you want to provide more details on your jobs/workflows and their scheduling.
