Date Lists

A date list contains a list of dates. You create date lists in Web Admin, or you can import a date list from a *.txt document.

To use a date list in a task, you add a schedule to the task and select the date list in the schedule. Settings in the schedule also determine how to handle the dates: include (run the task on the dates in the date list) or exclude (do not run the task on the dates). For more information, see Schedules.

• To create a date list: Click SETTINGS > Date Lists. Click Add Date List.
• To edit a date list: Click SETTINGS > Date Lists. Click a date list name. In the Properties row, click Edit.

  See Add/Edit Date List field descriptions.

Date Lists Created Outside Web Admin

You can create a date list in a text document. Use the following syntax:

• Each entry is a single line that uses the format YYYY-MM-DD
• Asterisk (*) wildcard is allowed in the year and month places.
• Hash (#) character designates a comment.

To add the date list to MOVEit Automation: Click SETTINGS > Date Lists. On the Date Lists page, click Add Date List > Import Date List.
