How do I setup the action step so that the Zap only fires on a weekday at 10am, and not in the weekend

Hello,

 

I have a fomatter date/time calculation step of -7days (7 days prior to an invoice due date) and then an action step to send a reminder. How do I set this action step so that it only fires on a weekday at 10am, and not in the weekend? For example, if the formatter step returns Saturday, the action step will fire at the following Monday at 10am.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi @ASAoperations 

You could use Paths to handle the scenarios:

    • NO Delay
  • Weekend - Saturday
    • Delay for 2 days
  • Weekend - Sunday
    • Delay for 1 day
