## Installation
Packagento is licence-gated, so even free packages need a licence on a project before Composer can resolve them.
1. **Sign in or create an account** at https://packagento.com/customer/account/.
2. **Add the package to your account.** Open https://packagento.com/magefan/module-cron-schedule and complete the free checkout. A licence is minted automatically.
3. **Create or pick a project, then activate the licence on it.**
- Projects represent the Magento installs you deploy to. Manage them at https://packagento.com/projects/.
- Activate the new licence on the project you'll deploy this package to. Activation is what generates the Composer credentials scoped to that project.
4. **Add the project credentials to your Magento codebase.**
Grab the project's public + private key from https://packagento.com/projects/ (open the project, then its Credentials tab), and add them to `auth.json`:
```json
{
"http-basic": {
"packagento.com": {
"username": "ppk_live_...",
"password": "psk_live_..."
}
}
}
```
Add the Packagento Composer repository to `composer.json`:
```json
{
"repositories": [
{ "type": "composer", "url": "https://packagento.com" }
]
}
```
5. **Install and apply.**
```bash
composer require magefan/module-cron-schedule:*
bin/magento setup:upgrade
bin/magento setup:di:compile
bin/magento cache:flush
```

### Features
#### Manage Cron Jobs from the Admin Panel
Forget about the troublesome and super technical ways of managing cron jobs in Magento. You no longer need to connect to your store database to schedule or execute cron jobs. We’ve simplified the process with the Magento 2 Cron Schedule Extension.
It now takes up to a few seconds to find, schedule, execute and log all cron jobs in your store, from Magento and all Magento extensions. The straightforward and intuitive interface of backend grids takes cron management to an entirely new level.
#### Reschedule and Execute Cron Jobs Easier
Since all cron jobs are neatly organized in your Magento 2 admin panel, scheduling and executing crons takes a few clicks. Use filters to find the cron job you need and click on the schedule column to start editing it. If more than one cron job needs to be rescheduled, use the bulk editor.
Whether it’s a cron job grid or a cron schedule section, you can easily execute any cron job simply by clicking on the corresponding buttons.
#### Keep Track of All Cron Tasks in Your Store
Using the Magento 2 Cron Schedule Extension you’ll never wonder if any cron job failed, was missed or didn’t run. Cron Jobs Schedule will provide all the necessary details, along with the status of the cron job and the time it was created, scheduled, executed and finished.
And if some cron job wasn’t executed, you’ll be able to execute it right from the grid. So, you won’t miss anything.
#### Monitor Cron Execution in a Timeline
If you’d like to view the cron jobs workflow in chronological order, we’ve got great news. Magento 2 Cron Schedule extension comes with the visual timeline for each cron job in your store. It enables you to track cron tasks up to seconds and optimize the process as necessary.
Moreover, when you hover a mouse over a single slot in the timeline, you can see all the cron details.
#### Get Notified if There Are Any Issues
Every cron flow is logged with all the details related to it. So you won’t miss any details related to them. However, you won’t sit there reloading the cron schedule grid to see if any errors occurred. You won’t miss it anyway.
Our Magento 2 Cron Schedule Extension will send you notifications about any errors related to cron at a specific time. Just define the email sender, received, template and time when you’d like to be notified about your cron processes. We’ll notify you if something goes wrong.

## Dependencies
### Require
| Package | Constraint |
|---|---|
| magefan/module-community | >=2.2.17 |
## Quality
Latest release (2.0.7) fails the Packagento QA pipeline. Verdicts below are per-cell (Magento line × PHP version) for the matrixed tools, and run-once for the static / security tiers.
### Compatibility
Each Magento line is installed on its supported PHP versions, then the module is built (DI compile + static-content deploy). Cells show passed / failed / untested; staircase gaps render as `–`.
| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | Pass | Pass | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | Pass | Pass | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | Pass | Pass |
### Code Quality
Advisory checks against the module's source. Never affect the Compatibility verdict — a phpcs finding can't make a module incompatible.
#### Static Analysis
Coding standards (phpcs), mess detection (phpmd), copy-pasted code (cpd), PHP cross-version compatibility, composer.json validity. Each runs once for the whole module.
| Tool | Status | Findings | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| PHPCS | Warning | 5 | 5 warnings (ruleset: Magento2) |
| PHPMD | Warning | 4 | 4 rule violations (MissingImport:2, UnusedFormalParameter:1, UnusedPrivateMethod:1) |
| Cpd | Pass | 0 | |
| Composer validate | Info | 2 | valid; 2 advisory notes (composer validate --strict) |
#### PHPStan
Type-checks the module against a real Magento install. Re-runs per Magento + PHP version because resolvable symbols differ between releases.
| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | 50 | 50 | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | 59 | 59 | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | 59 | 59 |
### Tests
Unit and integration suites run per Magento + PHP cell. Test failures speak to the module's behaviour, not its compatibility with a line, so they're reported here separately.
#### Unit Tests
| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A |
#### Integration Tests
| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A |
### Security
Dependency-advisory audit (composer audit) plus a source malware scan. A malware detection fails the version outright.
| Tool | Status | Findings | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Composer audit | Pass | 0 | |
| Malware scan | Pass | 0 | |
## Licence and pricing
