- Annually: Define a specific day, month, and time for yearly execution.
Daily/Weekly Options
- Execute in Days: Select one or more days when the workflow should run.
- Execute in Times: Set one or multiple times for execution during the selected days.
- First Executed Date (optional): Define the starting date for the workflow to begin.
- Last Executed Date (optional): Specify the date after which the workflow will stop running.
Monthly Options
- Execute in the day every month: Enter the Day and set the specific Time (numeric values) on which the workflow should execute.
- First Executed Date (optional): Set the starting date for execution.

This trigger offers a robust scheduling system, making it ideal for automating recurring tasks and time-specific operations.
