FAQ: What is the recommended day of the month to schedule recurring/PM jobs?

We recommend NOT scheduling jobs the last few days of the month, since not all months have the same number of days.  We DO recommend scheduling PM jobs to trigger on the first of the month or near the first of the month (regardless of frequency), in the early morning, e.g., 7:00 or 8:00 AM, and to post "0" days in advance (UNLESS:  1) the PM job is one-time only, which requires at least "1" day advance, or 2) your Servicer needs a certain amount of advance notice to prep for a job).
