Hi @ashmitp869 

Obviously NPrinting does not have such custom setting like working days for particular country (not to mention things like public holidays etc...)

Options I would consider:

• use of API - (method I would use) - that would allow for logic to be moved to QlikView script where you could manage your working day calendar in qvw app and have a condition which would allow to trigger task on reload from QMC. I know that topic may be advanced and difficult if you are not familiar with that concept - but step by step instructions are already written. If you decide to take that path make sure you read all documentation as the setup needs to be done "to the letter": https://nprintingadventures.com/2019/04/08/nprinting-api-qlik-rest-subroutines/
• use of condition: simply schedule your task to run daily and add condition to it based on maybe variable. That variable value can be calculated in QlikView app. https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/May2021/Content/NPrinting/ReportsDevelopment/Conditions.htm You would add condition to task to ensure that task runs only on 5th working day. Logic for your 5th working day is then kept again in your QlikView script.
