Unless they’ve added this feature in V10 which I haven’t seen. The only way we found to do it was if you plan ahead and set the schedule manually, there isn’t a way to make it recurring like other normal database tasks. We had a script created to build them out 5 years into the future on a planned schedule of once a quarter per site.

Calculate Purchase Costs cannot be scheduled as a database task. This is same in IFS APP 10 as well.
"Calculate Purchase Costs" activity require two fixed dates as parameters. As per current design of the application, it is not possible to create an execution schedule for a job that runs with the same two dates every time. So in order to be able to run this as a scheduled task it needs to be redesigned so that the two date parameters are replaced with some input that calculates two dates relative sysdate once the job is created.
This request has been raised to IFS several times as well. However the functionality cannot be provided within current scope.
RnD will consider this is future releases.
If you need to know more information on this, you can raise a IFS Support case for this.
Anyway you can follow the same solution as
