How to Schedule a bot on accounting day ?

 

Best answer by ravi.pothana

 

Scheduling considerations when running bots repeatedly.

When configuring bots to run repeatedly on a schedule it is important to make sure that the time between runs does not drop below the total time for deployment and execution of the bot. Otherwise, sequential executions of the bot might overlap leading to unexpected behavior.

For example if it takes two (2) minutes to run a bot, do not schedule the bot to run every one (1) minute. The previous run cannot complete before the next run begins.

With the reference specification, it is possible to successfully configure concurrent schedules.

Activity Schedule data
Concurrent schedules 100
Run as user per schedule 10
Total concurrent bots 1000
