Hi,

I don't quite understand the "frequency" and Maximum applications settings.
What do I need to fill in if I want an event to get triggered once a month, such as with the paycheck?

Thanks!
 
So there is currently no way to ensure it always triggers on the first of every month for example, due to the fact that the limitation exists in seconds, and you can't divide months into even chunks :D

If you go to https://www.epochconverter.com/ and check the little helper table there, you'll find that the average amount of seconds in a month is 2629743.

If you fill out the advanced options like this:
1696233954776.webp

It should trigger once every 30.44 days.

If having such a random and uneven interval causes confusion - which would be completely understandable - you could consider dividing the paycheck amount by 4 and instead use 604800 (1 week) so people would always get their paycheck amounts once a week.
 
Hi @Fillip H.,

Thanks for the very detailed explanation! The website you shared is very useful!

I’ll play around with this and let you know if I have questions!

Just out of curiosity, why did you decided to take that approach and not the drop down like user upgrades has with “days, months, years” etc?

Wouldn’t that make things much easier?

Thanks!

More fine-grained control :)
