Hi @nirshani 

 

  1. avoid sending on the first day of the month --> [David] use the same logic as for point 3 

  2. avoid weekend --> [David] use condition with time condition as parameter. I explained it here

  3. avoid holidays -->  [David] use condition with data source condition and define your holidays. see the example below where I was excluding 7/4, Thanksgiving, Christmas, new year and MLK day
    in(toDateOnly(now()),[toDateOnly("2023-07-04"),toDateOnly("2023-11-23"),toDateOnly("2023-12-25"),toDateOnly("2024-01-01"),toDateOnly("2024-01-15")])

Thanks,

David

    thanks you , this probably work and i will use it  !🙂

     i think it is to cumbersome to apply for each touch point with the client on each journey...

     

    is there a possibility to ask improvement from Adobe ?  i think that those definitions should be on the surface definition then you have the flexibility   to use it across journeys and can reuse different surfaces in the same journey  

     

    Thanks
