   1. Select a workflow and then click OK.

   1. Click to select a date.
   2. Click to select a time.

   Publish Date

   Select the date and time to execute a publish action in a workflow stage.

   Note: This cannot be set on the content template. You can only select a publish date on the content item itself.

   Expiry Date

   Select the date and time to execute an expire action in a workflow.

   General dates

   These dates are executed when using custom actions to perform scheduled tasks not based on published or expired dates.

   Note: Selecting a publish or expire date does not cause the item to be published or expired. The selected workflow must include a publish or expire action for this to happen. The publish and expire dates and times do not represent the time the item is published or expired. They represent the time the publish or expire action can be executed which may occur before the item is moved to either the published or expired stage of the workflow cycle.

   If no date or time is selected then it will default to the date the item was created which allows the publish and expire actions to be executed immediately when the item is moved to the published or expired stage of the workflow cycle.

   The date and time selected here are based on the timezone of the server you are accessing, not the timezone of the computer you are using.
