Schedules#

VergeOS includes a Schedule feature as a modular component within the Task Engine, enabling you to fully customize when and how often tasks are executed.

Key features#

  • Schedules can be configured as one-time or recurring, supporting ongoing automation.
  • A single schedule can be reused across multiple tasks. For example, to run a monthly checklist on the first day of each month, you can create one schedule and apply it to several tasks.
  • Users can define custom schedules to automatically trigger tasks at specific dates and times.

VergeOS includes a set of commonly-used default schedules. You can also create your own custom schedules by following these steps:

Create a Custom Schedule#

  1. Navigate to System > Tasks Dashboard, then select Schedules from the left-hand menu.
    The list of existing schedules will appear.

  2. Click New in the left-hand menu to begin creating a new schedule.

  3. Fill out the schedule fields:

    • Name: Provide a descriptive name for the schedule.
    • Description: Optionally add context or notes about its purpose.
    • Recurring Schedule:
      Use the Repeat Every fields to define the frequency: choose from days, hours, minutes, months, weeks, or years.
      Then specify any corresponding criteria, such as for days, select the number of days or specific weekdays, and for months, choose the day of the month.
    • One-Time Schedule:
      To create a single-use schedule, select Does Not Repeat from the frequency dropdown, then specify the Start Date and Time.
    • End Date (optional):
      By default, a new recurring schedule is configured to be perpetual. To set an end date, unselect Never Ends and choose the desired end date and time.

  4. Click Submit to save the schedule.
    Once saved, it will be available to assign as a schedule trigger for any task.

Version Compatibility: This functionality is available in VergeOS 26.0 and later.
