@TomM2

I unfortunately have to reopen this topic again because I face now the same issue as @jlbro . So the solution with operations Hub works as suggested but than the question becomes how do I use it in workflows to send it out at the exact time calculated in the date property?  
Either the flow enrolls everything at midnight or with the delay option in the flow I’m forced to set a time of the day, which also isn’t what we want to do actually.  
I see with contacts there is a schedule around time properties option but in my case we are speaking about a deal workflow, where this option doesn’t exists.  
Could you please help @TomM2 in how to set this up in this case?
