The program you transfer to the PLC will run automatically whenever it is powered up since the program is stored in the EEPROM.

Based on your description you seems to need a real time clock that will keep working even when powered down? If that is the case you will need to purchase the MX-RTC so that the real time clock can continue to run when power is off.

Alternatively if the PLC is connected by serial port to a PC then the PLC can set its RTC upon power up using the Real Time Clock on the PC by communicating with the TLServer. This is described in the TLServer section of the Programmer's Reference guide under the "Nework Services".
