"Last Day Of Month" Schedules

While MOVEit Automation does not directly support scheduling task runs on the last day of the month, the Date Lists feature can be used to provide equivalent functionality. A date list can be set up containing all "end-of-the-month" dates for a period of some years, and used as the date schedule for a task. A list of all "end-of-the-month" days for the period of March, 2012 through December, 2020, is included below. To use it, create a new date list in MOVEit Transfer Admin, and then copy the list below and paste it into the Entries text box.

Another way to provide end-of-month date lists is to use the wildcard character *, instead of specifying dates for each year. This will allow the use of a 12-line date list, instead of 12 lines for each year. The drawback to this method, however, is that the date list will need to be modified for leap years. An example wildcard datelist is supplied below.

For information about creating and managing date lists, see the Date Lists page in this manual. For information about using date lists, see the Schedules page in this manual.
