Re: Week of the month

User wants report on specific day of the week. Currently every Tuesday, now
wants alternate Tuesdays. But will settle for 2 and 4th Tuesday. Program
looks at accounts for a larger period than a week. Weekly is overkill. But,
this is a changed requirement from the initial weekly run.

I am just guessing here, but it sounds like he wants to make comparisons
from period to period. Would he be happier, for his purposes, with a
15th of the month and the last day of the month?

Originally, the request was for every other week. I thought that determining
which week would have been more involved. So, this concept seemed reasonable.

We talked about the fifth week issue. Not a problem if not run on the fifth
week.

What happens if the month has 5 Tuesdays, should the process still only run
on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the next month?

That parameter is one I did not recall. Thanks.

John,

I have a program that runs weekly on Tuesday. Now, the user wants this

program
run on the second and fourth Tuesdays. I have looked through the v5r4
APIs,
but don't see anything that jumps out as something that can return the

week

of
the month. Two possibilities: I have not seen it yet, or it isn't

there.

Why not just let the system job scheduler handle it?

AddJobScdE Frq(*Monthly) ScdDate(*None) ScdDay(*Tue) RelDayMon(2 4)

And it will run on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month.
