Between Task A and Task B you can use timer event to wait untill the next day 5AM EST.

A process has its own timezone. Check the process model properties dialog. In a process, there is no logged in user.

One approach is First, get the task A completed date and store it in a process variable and then for the Task B in the

Scheduling --> Sceduled start ---> dont start node until -->in the expression rule

now = pv!taskACompletedDate+1 and use local() function with the timezone as EST

yeah something like that
but I am not sure how to trigger it exactly at 5am EST. Like how to get time of that particular timezone and trigger it?
and it should not change based on loggedin user's timezone. I am confused like which time value I can take as reference and proceed further

Hi, You can open the user input task properties and in the scheduling you can configure the task when you want the task to get triggered

Did you consider to schedule task B?
