Assume that the computer was off-line from the 16th to (and including) the 18th, and the 15th was the last date that the report decollating mission was scheduled for execution. Today is the 19th.

Assume that the WORKDAYS calendar contains the dates 15, 16, 18 and 19. Therefore, the report decollating mission is scheduled three times with the original scheduling dates: the 16th, 18th and 19th.
