Creating time patterns with the scheduler somponent "cron expression"
Time patterns are defined in Aeneis with cron expressions. A cron expression is a string consisting of six or seven fields. The fields are separated by spaces.
The six mandatory fields and the optional field (year) are divided as follows:
<1: Seconds> <2: Minutes> <3: Hours> <4: Day of the month> <5: Month> <6: Day of the week> <(7: Year)>
