Either have an "end date" (like we have a start date) for scheduled tasks, or a schedule type that is a one off. Or maybe it's on demand, but it asks if you want to run immediately or at a later date/time.
Teams are often creating pdf printing tasks that they want run in the evening, but then forget to turn it off and it ends up running weekly.
Wow! I think I just had forest->trees moment there, as the expression goes. We just upgraded recently, so I didn't notice it yet.
Thanks Matt!
We did get this done in 2025.1...
I agree that both would be nice, but the until date would accomplish both without more buttons or selections.
Both are great ideas - we need a one-off scheduled task.
For simplicity my Vote would be for an optional "Until Date". I think it would be very easy to set this date to a single day in the future etc. to make the task a one off. But agree we would love to have this feature to schedule a single run late in the evening without having to wait up till midnight or remember to go in the next day and turn off the schedule :-D
Ray - an interesting idea...
Any others care to vote on this? and suggest whether it should be:
- A one-time schedule
- An optional "Until" date for the schedule?
