How to create one time schedules for subscriptons

Question

hi

I have  a requirement to have a scheduled subscription where no recurrence is required that means notification should go only once. I cant configure this as event based as I required it to be triggered on some button click and should send notification and then should be done.

I gone through ScheduleRecurrence related documentation but it is not useful.

Please suggest.

Rashmi

Answer 1

Hi,

I'm not sure what you mean by button click, do you mean you want to create the task schedule from ASP.NET webform (Button Click event)?

If so, you can try the following article:

hi

actually I am using SQL server notification services and in simple language I need to send a mail ... may be say when i click on "Notify User" button on user interface. I have created scheduled subscription for the same. now schedule frequency is mandatory for it and it has values like Daily, weekly ... but i dont need recurrance.. please suggest if i am doing anytihng conceptually wrong here.

Thanks

Answer 3

I explored more and found chronicals to do the same but in that case do my chronical data keep on increasing ... i mean it never disables subscription it just checks it against chronical data. am i right?

one more query is Schedule Start property compulsary? if not then when mail will be shooted when i subscriobe to scheduled subscription where no schedule start or recurrence is specified?
