To schedule tasks to run on specific days of the month or weekdays, you can specify the day of the month or day of the week field in your crontab entry. For example, to run a job on the first day of every month, you would use the field "0 0 1 ". To run a job on weekdays only, you would use a field like "0 0 1-5". To specify a specific time of day, you would use the minute and hour fields, such as "30 8 *" to run a job at 8:30am every day. Schedule tasks and jobs based on capabilities and dependencies.
