Assistance Needed for Scheduling Flow 4 times per year on very Specific Dates

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 6
Dear all,
I would appreciate your advice on how to schedule a flow to run 4 times per year (every quarter) on the following dates:
  • March,1st
  • June, 1st
  • September, 1st
  • November,1st
So, the complexity I have here is that it needs to run every 3 months for the first 3 quarters of the year (Q1, Q2, Q3), but after 2 months since the last run (Q3) for the last quarter of the year (Q4)

Any suggestion on how to best address this requirement?

Thanks
Best Regards
Michael

    Schedule your flow to run every day at the desired time and then add a trigger condition to check if the current date is one of the four days you want it to run:
    You would use this expression in the trigger: @or(equals(formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MM-dd'), formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-03-01')), equals(formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MM-dd'), formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-06-01')), equals(formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MM-dd'), formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-09-01')), equals(formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MM-dd'), formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-11-01')))
