Cron configuration example

Enabled	User	Group	minute	hour	month_day	month	week_day	id	function	description
true	cnn		10	*	*	*	*	1	testCron()
true	cnn		20	*	*	*	*	1	testCron()
false		all_users	0	0	*	*	0	2	testDbSpace()

first cron is anabled just for user cnn and it will launch testCron() function every minute 10 every hour every day.

second cron is anabled just for user cnn and it will launch testCron() function every minute 20 every hour every day.
thirth cron is disabled and it's configured for allusers group and it would run every sunday at 00:00

Example Codeunit Crons: ...

function testCron() // id = 1
   begin
      someCodeForTestingCron();
   end

function testDbSapace() // id = 2
   begin
      someCodeForTestingDbSpace();
   end;

Note you must write cron functions in crones codeunit and update launchCron() function so engine can handle those new functions.

Using:
If you want a cron to be launched at diferent times, you must write several lines !!

In main menu, write a timer with timer interval property = 60000 with crons.launchCrons(); at ontimer trigger.
That's all !!
