setting up cron job for month end week report

Bhups · #1 (**permalink**) 04-05-2006

Hi all,

Needs your help in scheduling a cron job for the below mentioned requirement. Just let me know if anybody has a similar job running as mentioned below:

Month end reports - Report of all items created in a parent table that were created during the week.

Presently this report runs every saturday as part of cron

20 03 * * 6 $HOME/job/weekly_logs.sh > $HOME/log/weekly_logs.log

Requirement:

In case month end(30 or 31) falls any day other than Friday/Saturday, we might have to run adhoc report to get models created from last run Saturday till 31st.

We need to automate this adhoc running - From the last run date(saturday) till month end(we can run <1st of next month)

Regards,
Bhups
