Remember to set Scheduled Task to future in Biztalk 2016 part 2 (and how to forget it)

(Update 15.3.2021)

According to Sandro Pereira’s blog post Scheduled Task Adapter is now updated and these triggering issues should be issues no more. Get the new adapter version here https://github.com/sandroasp/BizTalk-Scheduled-Task-Adapter/tree/master/BTS2020

Okay, this Scheduled Task Adapter issue didn’t leave my mind alone in the holidays. I made an issue to Scheduled Task Adapter’s GitHub repo and thought that maybe I should investigate this thing a bit further. I also noticed that there was similar mentions about issues in the comments of Sandro Pereira’s blog post about the adapter.

If you have worked with Biztalk you have probably bumbed into Scheduled Task Adapter. It’s a great tool to trigger scheduled things in Biztalk. I’ve used it extensively in e.g. Biztalk 2013 R2, but not in Biztalk 2016 until late. Now when I started using Scheduled Task Adapter in Biztalk 2016, I noticed some strange behaviour in how tasks get triggered.
