Need ability to make routine execute monthly and specific date. I’m trying to create a schedule to reset my kWh counter.

Check this out: [image] Aeotec energy monitor resetting values Devices & Integrations Is there any other way than factory reset to reset the total energy consumption in SmartThings app? Would be even better if this could be automated every month.

Hi @RottenMutt , as was posted above, just install @Mariano_Colmenarejo’s virtual calendar device and then create a routine with it that selects the day and time (as separate conditions) to trigger the reset. Here’s what mine looks like: [image] There are several capabilities with that virtual calendar device. You can see where I selected the “Local Day” capability and set it to 1 for the first day of the month, and then I added the “Local Hour” capability at set it to 5 minutes past midnight (0 to 2359 represents a 24 hour clock range). So at the first of every month at 12:05am I reset my HEM and water meter. Here’s the virtual calendar discussion and invite: [image] (EDGE Driver-Mc): Aplicaciones Virtuales Mc (virtual Switch Mirror, Virtual Calendar and virtual Switch Board...)
