[SOLVED] Run ReportCaster task from 8am to 5pm only

Hi All,

Does anyone know if ReportCaster can have a task designated to run during a specific hour range. I have a report that I want to run hourly on Monday through Friday but only during the hours of 8am to 5pm. I suppose I can check the time at the start of the report and then run it or abort it accordingly but I'm wondering if anyone has any other ideas. Perhaps it's in the user interface and I can't see it.

Thanks,

Norb

Put it on a Weekly interval and check the days Monday-Friday. Put the start time at 8am.
Then go into the Advanced tab and check "Apply Secondary Run Interval". Pick every 1 Hour until 5 pm.
