Schedule Batch Jobs with MacOS

[uwenet]

First of all....
After using FreeFileSync for some days I immediately donated because for me it is by far the best Backup Solution I found - Thank you!!!

I want to use the Schedule Batch Jobs with MacOS.
It seems to work fine with Automator and Calendar but I have one Problem!

Every time after my Computer wakes up after Standby the Backup Batch Job starts.... Why??
I configured it daily but at the evening, and now it starts also after every Standby.

Perhaps there are other ways to configure batch jobs with a Mac (Catalina)?

Thank you
Uwe

SOLVED!!!

After a little bit of research...
you can do it with cron under Mac or Linux:

open terminal:
crontab -e
00 18 * * *    /Applications/FreeFileSync.app/Contents/MacOS/FreeFileSync /PATH/TO/backup.ffs_batch


With this example it starts at 18:00 every day (and NO start after Standby!!!!)

Using Cron under MacOs:
