Use Schedule Editor to specify parameters for the Timer (Scheduled) flow action.

Note: Each time a rule set that contains a Timer (Scheduled) flow action is triggered, a new timer starts. The time it finishes depends on when the timer started.

Scheduled Time

Select the time of day that the timer will finish. For example, 12:01 a.m.

Schedule for a particular day of the week

Select the first option if you want the timer to finish on a particular day of the week (for example, Sunday), the first time that the day occurs after the timer starts.
Select the second option if you want to the timer to finish on a particular day of the week (for example, Sunday), when that day occurs in a specific week of a specific month.
For example, assume the rule set starts on Friday, Feb. 1. If you select Sunday, the timer finishes two days later. If you select The Last Sunday of January, the timer finishes a year later.

Schedule for a particular day of the month

Select the first option if you want the timer to finish on a particular day of the month (for example, day 15), the first time that the day occurs after the timer starts.
Select the second option if you want to the timer to finish on a particular day of a particular month (for example, day 15 of May).
For example, assume the rule set starts on April 2. if you select Day 1 of the month, the timer finishes on May 1. If you select Day 1 of April, the timer finishes on April 1 of the following year.

Consider a timer missed if later than X after scheduled time

Specify how long the Prinergy system waits after a timer starts before considering the timer to be missed (usually because of a system shutdown).
For example, assume the timer is scheduled for 10 p.m. Sunday and a power outage occurs from 9 to 11 p.m. Sunday. If you select an interval after the scheduled time that is greater than 1 hour, the timer is not considered missed and it finishes. If you select an interval that is 1 hour or less, the timer is considered missed.

When the system detects a missed timer

Specify what Prinergy does when a timer is missed:

• • Select Fire Immediately if you want the timer to finish.
  • Select Ignore if you want nothing to happen.
  • Select Reschedule if you want the timer to finish at the scheduled time (for example, the next Sunday at 10 p.m.).

Advanced: Convert to Code

Click this button to use the Microsoft Visual Basic programming language to assign parameters in Parameter Code Editor.
If you click Save in Parameter Code Editor, the next time that you edit the parameters for the event-action pair, Parameter Code Editor appears instead of Rule Parameters Editor. If you want to stop using code and use Rule Parameters Editor again, right-click the line between the event and action, and select Reset to Default.
