Custom reload task issues

[Bindiya]

Hi,

My requirement is for a dashboard to run on 1st and 2nd Friday each month. Below is how I had it setup. 

Custom increment: 0 0 1 0

Custom filter: * * 1,2 5 * * * *

After I created the task, noticed next execution field is blank and doubted if it would run. As expected, when I checked today (5/3 - first Friday) it did not. Where did I go wrong?

Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

see the qlik help documentation

and also the explanation @Albert_Candelario  in this post

Yes, I did see the documentation before coming up with that custom schedule. For some reason it is not working if I have 2 values (i.e. 1,2) in the WeekDayPrefix. But if I change the custom filter to * * 1 5 * * * * it works which is just running on 1st Friday of each month. But I want it to run on both 1st and 2nd Firdays.

I currently do not use Sense, so I was unable to test it. However, in the community post mentioned above, there is also a solution for 2 triggers, which I believe may help you.
