The easiest way of doing is this that

=Create a backend handler program: Develop a program or script in a programming language of your choice (such as Python, PHP, or JavaScript) that can connect to the VTiger CRM backend.

Implement the time-based condition: Within the backend handler program, add the logic to check if the current time meets your desired condition (e.g., divisible by 15 minutes).

Define the actions: Specify the actions you want the backend handler to perform when the condition is met. These actions can include triggering the workflow or executing specific tasks within the VTiger CRM system.

By implementing this approach, the backend handler program will independently check the time condition and execute the desired actions without relying on the VTiger workflow's trigger frequency. This way, you can achieve the desired behavior of running the workflow or performing specific tasks within the specified time intervals.

For this, you will need to make the necessary changes. Firstly, you will have to modify the database configuration to allow the item table to be optional by enabling null values for the relevant columns. This will ensure that you can create invoices without having to include items if they are not applicable.

Additionally, you will need to update the back-end functionality responsible for creating new rows in the item table. This will align with your requirement of making the item table non-mandatory.
