Title: Monthly scheduler option – run an event on a specific day of each month

Hello,

I would like to suggest adding a monthly scheduling option to the RadioBOSS Event Scheduler.

Currently, events can be scheduled by:

• Date and time
• Day of the week
• Week of the month
• Every year
• Hours, minutes and even seconds

However, there does not appear to be an option to run an event on a specific calendar day of every month, for example:

• On the 1st day of every month at 00:05
• On the 15th day of every month
• On the last day of every month

My specific use case is the automatic creation of the monthly broadcasting report for PROPHON. At the moment, I would need to create twelve separate annual events or use an external script as a workaround.

A simple option such as “Repeat every month” next to “Every year”, or a selectable day of month, would be very useful for reports, backups, maintenance tasks and other monthly operations.

Thank you for considering it!

I'm not sure if we'll add the extended scheduling option like this - this will be considered, of course.

A possible solution for now is to run such events every week, and just ignore the results that you don't need.

Thank you for considering it, Dmitry.

For now, I have solved it by creating twelve separate annual events—one for each month—as shown in the screenshot below.

This works reliably, although a monthly scheduling option would make the setup cleaner and could also be useful for other recurring tasks such as reports, backups and maintenance.

Thanks again!
