I am using the My Trash Services ArcGIS Solution to share waste pickup and recycling schedules with the public: My Trash Services Solution.
In our city, we have both weekly and monthly service schedules. While the system functions as expected when configured with weekly schedules, I am encountering an issue when using the monthly schedule configuration.
For monthly setups, the workflow involves:
Selecting the schedule type as "Monthly."
Specifying which days of the week will have service (e.g., Monday = Yes, Thursday = Yes).
Indicating which week of the month the service will occur (e.g., Week One = Yes).
Once the data is published and deployed using the provided app, there is an Arcade expression that calculates the Next Pickup Date (attached for reference). However, this expression does not return the correct dates when using the monthly schedule configuration.
I would like the Arcade expression to be enhanced to support monthly schedules in accordance with the configuration provided by the user in the solution's data table.
Example:
Using October 2024 as a sample:
Schedule Type: Monthly
Day: Monday = Yes
Week: Week One = Yes
The expected output should be the first Monday of October, which would be October 7, 2024. Currently, the expression does not calculate this correctly.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently, I am using a separate script outside of the solution to calculate this value as a Windows Task Scheduler job. However, I would prefer that everything is handled within Arcade, as the rest of the solution is already implemented this way. I do not want to rely on a scheduled task for this calculation.
