Cron Job Manager allows you to set up jobs you manage through your email. The output and completion status can be sent to an email address that you specify.

To specify the email address to which the results of your cron job will be mailed:

If you have not already entered an address, click the No Address Specified link. Otherwise, click the email address that displays to change it.
Enter your email address when prompted.
Click Apply.

To run a cron job in advanced mode:

Click on Change to Advanced Format.

Changing to the advanced mode shows you the run times in code rather than the times shown in the simple mode.

To cancel a cron job:

In both the simple and advanced modes, you may cancel a cron job by clicking the X under Enabled. This will bring up a confirmation page. Click Remove and the entry will be deleted.
