# Schedule

The **Schedule** tool allows you to schedule workflows on a specific date and time.

You are offered two options: **Recurring** and **One time**. Recurring means that the workflow will trigger at a frequency (i.e. hourly, daily, etc...). One time means that the workflow will trigger once on the date and time of your choosing.

You can click on the hyperlink **Timezone:** to be redirected to your Shopify store's timezone settings.

With MESA and the Schedule tool together, you can schedule important workflows without worrying if they will run when you need them to.
