What this helps you do
This guide shows the supported Pixie CRM route for run and verify the cron job, the values worth reviewing and the checks to make after the action.
Follow these steps
- Open Setup → Settings → Cron Job / Utilities in Pixie CRM.
- Start the task from that screen and select the correct customer, record, staff member or configuration context when Pixie CRM asks for one.
- Review the controls that matter for this task: Cron command/URL, Schedule, Last run, Status/log evidence.
- Complete Run and verify the cron job using the supported action on the screen. If Pixie CRM shows a validation message, correct the underlying value instead of bypassing the control.
