Schedule workflows and tasks to run automatically

Run a workflow daily, weekly or monthly on Vietnam time. How to set a schedule, pause it, run it now, and why a schedule can pause itself.

2 min read

For regular, repeated work such as a weekly report or reconciling receivables at the start of each month, you can let XomiW run it on a schedule.

Schedule a workflow

  1. Open the workflow and fill in the fields as you would for a normal run.
  2. Under "Run on a schedule", choose how often: Daily, Weekdays, Weekly, Monthly or Once, then pick a time. Times are in Vietnam time (GMT+7).
  3. Under "Tell me when it finishes or needs approval", choose a channel, for example Email.
  4. Click "Save schedule".

The schedule reuses the exact files you uploaded for every run. When you have new numbers, edit the schedule and upload the new file. For reporting periods, choose "Last week (worked out at run time)" or "Last month (worked out at run time)" so each run picks the right period by itself.

Create a schedule from chat

You can also just type, for example: "Every Friday prepare the weekly report". XomiW sends a "Scheduled task · draft" card with the task, the schedule, the first run and the estimated cost. Click "Enable schedule" to turn it on, "Try it now" to test it (uses real credits), or "Discard".

Manage your schedules

Web: sidebar → "Schedule & reminders" → "Scheduled tasks" tab. App: Account → "Schedule & reminders".

Each task shows "Next", the last result and the credits used in the last 30 days. You can "Pause", "Resume", "Run now", "Edit" or "Delete". Deleting a schedule stops it immediately; past runs are kept.

In the app, the switch on each row turns it on or pauses it; tap ⋯ (or press and hold the row) to "Run now" (the app shows roughly how many credits first), see "Run history" (tap a run to open its chat) or "Delete".

Credits and safety

Every scheduled run uses credits like a normal turn, even when you don't open XomiW. If there aren't enough credits, that run is skipped. When running while you are away, XomiW only reads and prepares drafts; anything sent or changed outside waits for your approval.

Give XomiW the job, get the file

Reports, official letters, spreadsheets, reminders: write one sentence; XomiW does it and asks before sending or deleting anything.
