    Hello Ankit,

    Thanks for raising the RFE.
    Scheduler node specifies either "Repeat Interval" or "Calendar" . One could imagine adding a Start and End time to the "Repeat Interval" settings but it would probably be simplest to add a third radio button option alongside Repeat Interval and Calendar for "Timed Start and Stop" or some similar name. Within this new option you would express the frequency (interval units) and also the start and end time. It should be noted that in the interim you already have an option for this behaviour on the TImeout Control/Timeout Notification node pair. where a control message can specify the "count" number of times that should be fired after a given start time. We realise this means you need to calculate the count based on your desired frequency, but the use case can be achieved with the product.

    This RFE has been accepted for future consideration making it a candidate for a future release; no committed timeline at this time. We’ll keep you informed as design and planning progress.
