Hi all Gurus,
I am not sure if this has asked before in the forum. I would like to know if we can schedule a job running in yearly basis?

thanks in advance.

This cannot be done with the interface in the Director, but since you are on UNIX you are probably using cron and you can schedule this by a line similar to:

@yearly {path_to_dsjob} {dsjob -run options}

Of course it can be done via Director, it's just that you would need to manually 'Add to schedule' an entry for each year as far out as you'd need. One at a time.
