Every day at 1 AM

Nightly work that must wait for midnight jobs to finish first, such as building reports from the day's closed data.

Checked with the same parser Bex uses to validate schedules. Next run times are computed in your browser.

Watch out for

Two jobs that depend on each other only by time can race if the first runs long; have the second check that the first finished.
Bex does not set a per-job time zone: the cluster controller's clock decides. Bex's own next-run projection assumes UTC, as shown here.
