I am unfamiliar with the "date-effective" attribute so will not comment.<div><br></div><div>However, regarding getting a r<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; ">ule to run on a specified time every day, I would suggest use of an external scheduler (Windows Task Scheduler, CRON, Quartz etc) that invokes a process to trigger execution of the activations on the agenda (i.e. fireAllRules) at the specified time every day. It is important to remember that Rule activations are determined when Facts are inserted into WorkingMemory. The activations collect on the agenda and are executed when fireAllRules() is invoked. So you *could* perform your WorkingMemory actions (insert, update, retract etc) throughout the day and only trigger the resulting actions when you want. </span></div>

<p><em><font face="Arial">default value : N/A</font></em></p>
<p><em><font face="Arial">type : String, which contains a Date/Time

<p><em><font face="Arial">A rule can only activate if the current date and time is
after date-effective attribute.</font></em></p>
<p><span><font face="Arial">But while trying out the
same, the engine recognizes only the day and not the time. How do I specify the
time? So far I have been using the std format HH:MM:SS , tried both 12-hr and 24
-hr format but no luck. Please help.</font></span></p>
<p><span><font face="Arial">Also, I would like to know
how can I make a rule run on a specified time everyday. With date-effective
specifying a date would be mandatory? Is thr a way or I need to put that in the
rule condition part.</font></span></p>
