Skip Days for Scheduling (Allow for weekday only)
Currently, you can only select daily or weekly. I think it would be beneficial to have it only run on Weekdays. That way records don't pile up over the weekend and risk duplicate records from showing up if multiple changes happened. This has happened when people submit multiple surveys or they have multiple scheduled gifts. And there is no way from the interface to tell which record is the latest.

Currently we have a system wide update that runs on Sundays. The system wide update changes/adds attributes which makes every record we have active. When we go to run weekly it brings in over 500,000 records because of the Sunday system wide update. In turn this not only slows our formula and update down but it slows down other formulas as well. If there was way to run on weekdays only when people are updating records and not the system updating records that would make it easier to commit to an auto schedule.

Running this all weekend means we potentially have duplicates getting created that need to be resolved and makes Monday's challenging.

I would add, if Omatic Cloud schedule could support cron expressions, that would be better.
