Scheduled Process

Hi,

I cannot believe I have not been able to find this myself, but I am trying to find a way to have a process run at a scheduled time.

What I am trying to achieve, is that we have automated Activities created for users, which can be weeks in advance, and that the date entered at the time of the creation is often acting as a placeholder until the schedule is confirmed. We are finding that they are not always seeing activities that need to be performed and date adjusted. Therefore are looking to create somethiing along the lines of:

  1. Scheduled process runs at set time each day
  2. Sends email to Owners of Activity tasks due, either that day or 2 or 3 days in the future
  3. Only for activities that are connected to Project Tasks with a keyword in the content

Thanks for any guidance anyone is able to provide.

I have since had a thought I could start with a Wait Timer set for 24 hours, but this could easily adjust to another time if there are issues with the service or the process restarts and therefore not an ideal method.

A true, start this process at this time on this frequency is still what I am looking for.

You can just create a process that would start on Start timer element once a day and loop through all Activities with the needed filter and start day 3 days after the current date sending the email. Ideally, you should loop through activities in a script task.
