When you have a job that needs to be scheduled outside of the normal allowed schedules provided by em or ms, this works great...simple if statement that calls job by name on certain dates.
if datepart(month, getdate()) = 1 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (6,11) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 2 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (7,17) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 3 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (7,23) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 4 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (7,21) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 5 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (5,20) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 6 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (7,22) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 7 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (7,21) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 8 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (5,23) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 9 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (7,22) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 10 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (5,21) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 11 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (4,18) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here' if datepart(month, getdate()) = 12 and datepart(d, getdate()) in (7,21) EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name = 'Job Name Here'

Sometimes we have a T-SQL process that we need to run that takes some time to run or we want to run it during idle time on the server. We could create a SQL Agent job manually, but is there any simple way to create a scheduled job?
