The weekly and monthly datetime is now configurable apart from the yearly relative date. The user can now define the validity of the run exclusion rule (start and end date):
  • In case of a week, the user can now select one or more day of the week, associated with a start date end time.
  • In case of a month, the user can now select a day in a month, associated with a start and end time.
  • In case of a year, the user can now select a day in the year, associated with a start and end time.
