Trigger a scheduled task upon completion of a different scheduled task

问题

I run a few weekly reports with python scripts and excel macros - each runs for a few hours, and must be done after midnight Monday morning. Task scheduler is the perfect tool for me! I'd like to get more efficient however. I would like to schedule these to start once the previous completes (instead of just guessing a time.) I see that I can begin the task 'On an event' and with a custom filter I can get really close to what I want... can one of you wizards help me out? I bet my right arm that I need to edit the XML code to be when task XYZ is = ### but I just don't know XML :(

This custom XML executes a task after the completion of FirstTask:

<QueryList>
  <Query Id="0" Path="Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational">
    <Select Path="Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational">*[EventData [@Name='TaskSuccessEvent'][Data[@Name='TaskName']='\FirstTask']]</Select>
  </Query>
</QueryList>

The way I solved this was to have the actions in the order I wanted in my task scheduler. So the first was triggered by a time, and I had 4 actions after. Windows knows to do them in order.

Hope this helps!
