Travis,
If this were me, I'd take the simple route of scheduling it to run every day at 
a convenient time- e.g. where when it does run, the PC has the time to do it, 
and it wouldn't delay something else important.

It will take less than a second to do the check, so there's no meaningful 
overhead to this approach.

Regards,
Thom

Subject: [talkbws] Scheduling question....

Good afternoon:

We're a C/S site running 5.66 and I've got a BAR related script that I need to 
set on a "different" kind of schedule.

I'm going to be posting payments from one of our bad debt vendors into a BAR 
batch but the hiccup is they run their processes on the first business day of 
each month and will provide me the input file on the second business day of 
each month.

Just wondering if anyone has run up against this type of need and how you 
ultimately handled it? I guess I could set the script to run the first 7 days 
of each month and just drop out if the input file is not there but hoping to be 
able to create a more elegant solution if there's one to be had?


Thanks,
