Hello I would like to create a time block that will be added to my agenda every day.
* Walk dog
SCHEDULED: <2020-06-29 Mon 13:30-14:00 +1d>
I know this is possible with a Repeated task. But than I have to mark that task daily as DONE
I want to block out daily recurring times, without having to mark them daily as done. Items such as lunch break and walking the dog.
With the current repeated task I get a backlog of tasks.
Is there a way to automatically reset the schedule date, or mark the task as done?
SCHEDULED does not mean what you think it means. These are daily appointments, so just add timestamps without planning keywords:
* Walk the dog
<2020-06-29 Mon 13:30-14:00 +1d>
It will appear on the agenda every day (assuming that the file is in org-agenda-files) but it's not a TODO item, so you don't have to mark it DONE.

I am currently doing a simulation model in AnyLogic of a Distribution Center where from Monday to Saturday I use an event to trigger the loading of a truck. I wish to program this loading every day at the same time, but how can I do it so it happens everyday EXCEPT Sundays. I currently have it as triggered: timeout and mode: cyclic, using calendar dates...
sure, the easy way is to just add a manual exception to the schedule as below:
And the more advanced way is to use a Dynamic Event that executes your daily action.
In the model start code, call create_MyDynamicEvent(7, DAY) to make it trigger after the first 7 days of the sim.
Then in the Dynamic Event action code, add whatever should happen every day. And also add a line that re-creates the same Dynamic event in 1 day, like
create_MyDynamicEvent(1, DAY)
This would then trigger every day, even Sunday. To avoid that, you can add an if-clause in the dynamic event action code to only execute your code if it is not Sunday.

What is the most reliable way to schedule a job with cron scheduler is Quartz that repeats every N days starting from a specific date
&
Absolutely unexplainable results for cron based scheduler in Quartz
There is another question regarding possibilities of scheduling with quartz. And the difference between the two above and this one and the fact that I am trying to execute more than a single job for the target period (e.g. Mon, Fri every 4th week)
Let's assume that a user needs to execute a task every 4th week on Wednesday & Friday starting from a specific date.
Of course, I can setup a cron scheduler that will look something like this:
0 0 12 ? 1/4 WED,FRI *
But we are beck to the same problem as described in the linked posts. What this cron expression really mean, is execute the job on Wednesday & Friday of every 4th week of the month.
Another option is to use, calendar interval schedule builder (the perfectly resolves the problem for as long as there is only one day of the week that needs to be considered); however, it does not allow to specify days of a week, but simply calculates the true 4 weeks worth of time based on the start date.
How, if possible, to schedule a job with Quartz, that will be executed every 4th (or any Nth week) on more than a single day of the week? Is it possible to achieve it without multiple triggers?
Thanks,
So, after long digging around, it seems like the only way to solve it with existing Quartz tools is to manage this type of scheduling with more that one trigger (one for every weekday).
Hopefully that helps somebody.
In Org-mode agenda-view, how I can list tasks which are done on a particular day?
I like to get view for a day or week In the case of larger context of time, I like to have total number of task displayed.
There are a few complex habits/tasks that I wish orgmode to handle, and I'm not quite sure how to program them:
A habit that has to be done twice a day, between certain hours (E.g. 8-9 and 18-19).
A habit that has to be done over the weekend (Between Thursday-Saturday).
A task that occurs every 6 months, twice a day between certain hours, for a duration of 21 days total.
Can someone help with adding the right SCHEDULE?
Weekend only habit:
SCHEDULED: <2013-12-13 Fri ++1w/2d>
This will cause it to repeat every Friday (regardless of when completed), and will be late if delayed by more than 2 days after the next notification.
Twice a day habit:
This will most likely have to be created as two separate habits, one for the first timeframe and one for the second.
Bi-annual:
Most likely requires two TODO's as well to allow for the two timeframes. I'm not sure if there's any real way of doing so without using complex diary SEXPs which you would have to create every 6 months (or update the SEXP to match the next 6 month span). Org TODOs/Habits don't usually include an 'end-date' when they repeat.
I am using Quart Scheduler. I want to trigger to in such a fashion so as it excludes timing from xx:xx:xx to yy:yy:yy on day specified (monday, friday. sunday). I know how to exclude particular day. but don't know how not to trigger on given time block on given day?
Can anybody know anything about it?
Please make use of Calendar and HolidayCalendar available in Quartz to achieve this. The Cron expression in Cron-Trigger can also be written smartly to achieve this as well.
Looking at http://www.quartz-scheduler.org/docs/examples/Example3.html, it seems that one can create different job set to do the same task. For each job one can attach a schedule.
If you dont want to run a particular task on say sunday between 1pm and 10pm, but want it to run on sunday the remainder of the day, then you can create two jobs [set to do the same task]. For one give the schedule with time restrictions 00:00 to 13:00. And for the second give time restriction of 22:00 to 23:59.
I hope I understood your problem correctly ...
