Making a record at a specific time

Post by Faustian »

I'm wanting to set up a table to record a value at a specific time, midnight let's say. The value will change over the day but stop around 10PM.

Is it possible to write a function within PlanMaker or some kind of script to write so the value at 12PM is stored in the sheet persistently? Upon opening the table's file, I want each end-of-day value to populate the records where I want them.

(I don't want to save a bunch of PlanMaker files and compress them as backups if avoidable)

You can do that by writing the code on BasicMaker for your PlanMaker file and set Window's Task scheduler to execute that code on those specific time points. You can read the BasicMaker manual for details of code writing. :)
