      Bamboo should have multiple fields for cron expressions - in some cases one cron expression does't do the job

      Set a scheduled build using the Cron Based Scheduling build strategy for 07:00 Mon-Fri. Also set up 2 other separate build plans to run the same build at 13:00 and 20:00. Is there currently a way to schedule builds to run 07:00, 13:00 and 20:00 Mon-Fri on one build plan instead of creating 3 separate plans?

            Hi Amit,

            Apologies for the late response.

            We certainly understand the benefits this feature can bring, and would like to implement it. However, unfortunately, this issue is not scheduled for a particular release, so I cannot give you a firm estimate of when it will be delivered.

            Choosing which features to go into a release is the most challenging job we face. Thanks for your comments and voting, they certainly do go to influence or scheduling process.

            Regards,
            Edwin

            Hi,

            I have also faced a similar issue:

            My project required a cron-based build trigger at 5:30pm on Friday and 11:30pm on Sunday. There is no way I could create a single cron-expression for this requirement. So, created two expressions and provided it in Bamboo separating it with a comma. But it didn't fire as desired and in the end, I had to convince the project to trigger the build at 11:30pm both on Friday and Sunday.

            But this could be seen as the tip of an iceberg, as someday a project may require some more complex cron-triggers.

            Kindly update with a comment on this issue as how the Atlassian dev team, feels about the issue.

            Regards,
            Amit Pandey
