• The cycle is of ticking type, i.e. the cycle repeats after a fixed-length interval between executions.
• The interval between execution of cycles is specified to be 2 minutes.
• The first cycle is specified to start at midnight, i.e. begin of day, in the workflow's time zone, with the last cycle being started 23 hours later or when hitting the limit specified.

Use of Cycles with Daylight Saving Changes

The workflow's time zone determines if and when daylight saving changes occur.

Basically any cycles are configured by the begin and duration of a period.

If the start time of a period matches a daylight saving change

• for which the clock is forwarded by one hour then the cycle will start immediately. Assuming the clock to be forwarded from 2am to 3am then the cycle starts at 2am with the order history indicating 3am as the start time. The duration of the cycle's period is unaffected by daylight saving changes. For example if the duration is specified to be 3 hours then on a day for which the clock at 2am is forwarded to 3am the cycle is executed until 6am.
• for which the clock is set back by one hour then the cycle will start according to its repeat interval. Assume the clock to be set back from 3am to 2am then the cycle starts at 2am with the order history indicating 2am as the start time. The duration of the cycle's period is unaffected by daylight saving changes. For example if the duration is specified to be 3 hours then on a day for which the clock at 3am is set back to 2am the cycle is executed until 4am.
