I ran into a use case where this possibility (defining the offset with a field value) is very important. But I found this to be impossible with the current schedule offset feature. I didn't found any similar feature request dus decided to request the offset to be optionally based on a field entity value

There are several use cases where the number of days/months etc. will rely on a value provided by an entity. It should be possible to define the offset with those values to make the offset dynamic.

Example

  • When a user needs to be able to choose how often he wants to receive an email from a website.
  • When a new invoice for a subscription needs to be created based upon the subscription duration.
  • To set reminders based upon user input.

This Support request also mentions this function.
I think this is a valid feature request that can improve the power of rules just a little bit more and make it an even more awesome module.

If you also think this is a valid feature request and would like to see this in rules, join in
