I need to trigger few jobs based on the system date ( in case user is not passing any date to the script. In case passing then need to take the user date).
Here is the requirement
1. Everyday call daily script
2. On 1st day of week call weekly script
3. On 1st day of month call Monthly script
4. On 1st day of the Quarter call Quarter script.
Now I need advice of you experts on how to do this.
What I was thinking is like creating a function and return some value and based on that trigger the jobs.
So, the monthly and quarterly job will be triggerred if it is 1/1 correct?
How do you define the quarters?
"starting day of the week" - Monday
"monthly and quarterly job will be triggerred if it is 1/1" -- Monthly Job will be triggered on 1st day of the month, total 12 times in a year. Quaterly job will be triggered 4 times in a year. 1st-Jan, 1st- April, 1st-July, 1st-October.

period "Nov 11 2013"
period
Output:
Code:
QTR
MTH
WK
NONE
Thank you for the function.
But isn't this will run only once?
For example on 1st of the month both the daily and monthly job should be triggered. In case it's a week start as well then weekly job too. And if it's a quarter start then quarter job too.
