Re: Get next Tuesday. Or the one after

If you do not currently have the AJS (Advanced Job Scheduler) you can use
the freebie WRKJOBSCDE and schedule a weekly job. This will show you how
easily that shows you the next run date. The freebie doesn't support
every other week though. Sure you can muff it by adding "omit dates" or
by manually scheduling all the dates in there but that is prone to error.

AJS comes with the 70 day license key to try it out.

If you want to do something like this with SQL or something you could do
something like
values dayofweek(current date), dayofweek_iso(current date),
week(current date), week_iso(current date)
into :d1, :d2, :w1, :w2;
If d1=2 and w1/2 = int(w1/2) then ...

but then you run into end of year and it running ok, or two weeks in a
row, or skipping an additional week.

or just add 14 days to last run date and go from there (easier in RPG than
SQL) Initializing last run date for the first run can be a trick.

I've never used AJS.
