Cron is a program on Linux servers which allows you to schedule jobs to run at specific intervals. This is very useful for automating repetitive tasks.

The /etc/crontab file is defined to automatically execute cron jobs at certain intervals based upon the directories below.

/etc/cron.hourly
/etc/cron.daily
/etc/cron.weekly
/etc/cron.monthly

The purpose of the cron wizard is to allow you to easily configure the following in Modernbill:
