Scheduling a Task for Certain Days of the Week or Weeks of the MonthYou can schedule a task to run on certain days each week, certain weeks each month, or certain days on particular weeks of the month. For example, you might want a task to run on the first and third Thursday of every month. In another example, you could schedule a task to run the last week of every month. Finally, you could schedule a task that includes both of the previous examples.
The Week Days of the Month pane is displayed. This pane contains a weekday matrix. A check mark entered for a day indicates that the task is scheduled to run on that day of its respective week. All days are selected by default. Note The weekday matrix is not a calendar. It is simply a matrix used to select days and weeks in a month.
The Scheduling Service dialog box accepts the changes you made and closes.

If you want a task to run only once or twice a month, deselect all days in the calendar matrix and then select the days on which you want the task to run.
