BPMs firing at the wrong time

[MatLudlam]

I have a BPM that fires using the scheduling definition "6 4 * * *".

When I look at the flow log, the entries are created at 5:06. This has historically worked, so I suspect that this is a summer time issue, i.e. the "Flow Log" entries show time adjusted for summer time, and the cron definition does not take account of it.

I have some reports that run at 05:00 to generate exceptions, and these are showing incorrect results because the BPM had not completed.

Here is the definition of the Timer Start event:


And here are the log entries:


And if you care, here is the BPM that runs:

Hi Mat,

Scheduling works in UTC timezone. It doesn't honor the server's timezone. You need to take it into account when you need the scheduling for specific hours.

It doesn't make sense to have part of ESPO aware of summer time (say when a report runs, modification times on records) and other parts not aware.

How do I schedule a job to run at a time and "take it into account" time zone changes?
