How can I schedule to run once on the first business day of every month in SQL Server JOB application?
Under Frequency, you can choose "The first weekday of every 1 month(s)".
It won't handle holidays, but as far as I know that's the closest you can get with the schedule configuration.

Is there a way to pause a scheduled job in SQL Server to NOT run between two times a day?
I have a recurring job that starts every 2 hours, daily from 12am. However, I want the job to not run between 4pm and 6pm. So I want it to run as follows:
12am, 2am, 4am, 6am, 8am, 10am, 12pm, 2pm, 8pm, 10pm and back to midnight.
Is that possible?
Thanks
I'm afraid you have to split your job in two schedules
(12am to 4pm and 6pm to 10pm).
You can handle this by implementing your own scheduling with a data model and some stored procedures.
Hope it helps.
Kind Regards,
My SQL Server Agent job runs everyday 7 PM. How can I disable it to not run every 10th, 11th and 12th date of the month?
Now every month, On 9th, after completion of the job, I do manually by changing start date of the schedule to 13th. Is there any better approach get rid of this manual activity?
I stuck in a issue from last 6 months. I had a SQL Servre job SALES lOAD which is created with a T-SQL script. This job is being recreated every month automatically. How we know which job affected or recreated my SALES lOAD load every month. I checked each and every job but no job is affecting this job
You may check if there is any process scheduled to run every month (BAT file,Task scheduler job, etc...)
My job scheduler has a behavior I can't understand.
It is schedule to fire in the following conditions:
Occurs every 3 month(s) on day 1 of that month at 00:00:00. Schedule will be used starting on 30/09/2015.
So I expected to see it launched next july at midnight and this OK for years.
But it started this night (1st of june).
The script and database have been completely reinstalled on next 5th of may for a migration.
I am using SQL Server 2012 on an on premises server.
Does anybody has an explanation?
Thank you
I need to be able to schedule a job on the 10th of each month and have it run for a set number of days or until a specified date.
Is there any way to customize sql server agent jobs using some sort of API or something?
Thanks.
You can accomplish using the SQL Job Schedule properties by using more than one schedule for the job. You can schedule the job to run on the 10th day of the month (with the option for an end date). You can then create multiple schedules, one for the 11th, 12th, etc.
The SQL Server Agent does not have a schedule option like you need, so I think your workaround is as good as it gets for keeping it inside SQL Server.
The Windows Task Scheduler however does have an option to run a job on the 'x' day of the month, maybe kicking your sproc off using sqlcmd via Windows Task Scheduler is an alternate solution?
Hope this helps
I still can't find any way of customizing the job schedule, but I have figured a way around it by adding the condition to the job step:
IF (DAY(GetDate()) >= 10)
EXEC MySP
And setting the schedule to run every day.
