Starting this thread for awareness as we experienced an issue with Patch Policies having incorrect next start dates post the new year. For example, some patch policies were setup for the first Saturday of the month, but looking at the next start date they are reflecting 1-9-2021 instead of 1-2-2021. Case has been opened with HCL and will share results.

Additional insight… Issue first detected on our production environment running version 9.5.15.71. We have a dev Bigfix environment running the latest version of 10 and the issue persists there as well. Passed along to HCL and awaiting feedback. Will keep this thread updated as we receive further insight.
