Schedule a transaction group monthly

I’m using Ignition 7.7.0 with MySQL 5.6 and I’m looking to trigger a transaction group on the first of every month. I am using 3 triggered expression items to total nine gas totals in to a monthly total. I have the MySQL query worked out and tested, but I can’t determine how to trigger or schedule this on the first of every month.

Hi Rich,

A quick and dirty way would be to make a Run-Always Expression Item to use as a trigger:

dateExtract(now(),'day') = 1

I usually name mine “Trigger”… :slight_smile:

You can then set things up in the trigger tab of the transaction group:

I wasn’t sure if that would work or not, I’ll give it try.

Thanks,
Rich
