Run cron jobs on an ad hoc basisRun cron jobs on an ad hoc basis

You can run both cron jobs and single run jobs on an ad hoc (manual) basis.

Run a cron job manually

In addition to scheduling jobs, you can start a job manually (that is, run the job on an ad hoc basis).

If the job is scheduled to run at a certain time, running a job on an ad hoc basis does not affect the execution of the job as scheduled, rather runs the job once in addition to the scheduled runs.

To run a cron job manually:

1. Navigate to Administrator > Jobs > Scheduled Cron Jobs.
2. Click Start job now under the job you want to run.

Run a single run job

Single run jobs can only be run manually.

To run a single run job:

1. Navigate to Administrator > Jobs >Single Run Jobs.
2. Click Start job now under the job you want to run.
