Posted May 28May 28 I noticed that several of the Schedules on Tasks that I've created, seem to be creeping.I suspect that this is likely due to the fact that I work remotely from Wisconsin (in the CST Time Zone), while my employer and many of our customers are located in California (in the PST Timezone).For instance, I set the Schedule to Run every 2nd Thursday at 12:00 AM CST (the equivalent of Wednesday 10:00 PM PST) and a week or two later, I find that it is running a full 24 hours behind schedule.That said, you may want to look into this, as the Schedules definitely don't seem to be functioning reliably, across Timezones, etc. Edited June 3Jun 3 by MrMattiPants For simplicity and to improve legibility, etc.
May 30May 30 Administrators Hey @MrMattiPants - Thanks for reaching out. Can you run the script through a scheduled workflow? There you can choose the timezone (refer to image)
June 3Jun 3 Author It appears that you can also choose a Time Zone, in the Task Schedule Settings.I have included a few Screenshots, which shows one of the Issues that I'm coming across.As you can see, in the First Image, the Starting Date/Time is Set as "Tuesday, March 11th, 2025" at "10:00 PM", with the Time Zone is Set to "US/Pacific". The Second Image confirms that "March 11th, 2025" should in-fact be a "Tuesday:".Unfortunately, the Third Image highlights the Problem, because it now seems to believe that "March 11th, 2025" is a "Wednesday".As previously mentioned, I'm fairly certain that this is likely related to the fact that my Computer Time Zone is in CST Time, simply because "10:00 PM PST" on Tuesday night is equal to "12:00 AM CST" (aka Midnight) on Wednesday Morning.

However, it does look like both Tasks and Workflows both allow you to Set the Time Zone, etc.Regardless, I'll give it a try and get back to you on the results. Thank You.
June 3Jun 3 Administrators Hey @MrMattiPants - I understand. Let's try the workflow and let me know if you're still having the same issue after.
