Hello @Handian Sudianto

If you're facing an issue with the schedule time in Azure Automation, it could be due to the time zone setting. Azure Automation uses the time zone setting of the Azure portal, which is set to UTC by default. You're in a different time zone, you'll need to adjust the time zone setting in the Azure portal to match your local time zone.

To change the time zone setting in the Azure portal, follow these steps:

1. Go the Azure portal
2. Click on the user icon in the top right corner of the screen.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the Settings page, select Time zone.
5. Select your local time zone from the list of available time zones.

Once you've changed the time zone setting, try creating the schedule again and see if the issue is resolved.

If you're still facing the issue, please provide more details about the issue such as the time zone you're in, the time you're trying to set for the schedule, and the time that is being set in the schedule. This will help me better understand the issue and provide a more accurate solution.

I am facing the same problem and I think the root cause is more likely seen in the info popup text, when defining the schedule in Azure portal:

"...You must set a start time that is at least 15 minutes after the time the schedule is created."

It doesn't help if you set the start date to next day.

So there seems to be a bug in the Azure portal and maybe you must wake up at midnight to be able to set the schedule to 1AM.
