so that only one report schedules at 7:00 AM

Answer 1

I understand that there is only 1 report template but still unlcear if there are 2 instances: one that schedules at 4 and one that schedules at 7.
1. If you ave 2 instances, once that schedules at 4 and one that schedules at 7, it is fairly simple , just query for the instance scheduled at 7 and delete it.
e.g
oInfoObjects = (IInfoObjects) oInfoStore.query("select si_id from ci_infoobjects where si_id = < recurring instance ID>;
((IInfoObject)oInfoObjects.get(0).deleteNow();
oInfoStore.commit(oInfoObjects)
You can use query builder to get the SI_ID of the recurring instance that schedules around 7 using:
select SI_IS, SI_NAME, SI_RECURRING, SI_NEXT_RUNTIME from ci_infoobjects where si_name='<report template name>' and si_recurring=1
here the SI_NEXT_RUNTIME should be around 7 AM.
2. If you have a single recurring instance that schedules at 4 and at 7, are you using calendar to schedule it? Because if the recurrence is chosen like daily at the 3 Hr interval, how did you manage to get only 2 runs a day rather than 8 ( 24/3)?
Any ways use query builder to query for this instance. You will need to delete some property bag in the IS_SCHEDULEINFo that corresponds to 7 AM schedule.
