The reason why we need it manually is , we don't need any performance drop in our production hours. So we figured out the most less usage working time, most freq used tables and want to perform that on daily . so in weekends we can vaccum and reindex entire db.. Is the model is not more efficient Smith?

If you think you need to do that daily, though, you probably should take a look at tuning autovacuum rather than trying to fix the problem manually all the time.
Having a doubt, we want to vacuum and reindex some 50 most used tables daily on specific time. Is it best to have a function in
postgres and call it in cron or is there any other good way to do the two process for specified tables at specified time?
