    Fields

    How it works

    Five fields: minute (0-59), hour (0-23), day of month (1-31), month (1-12 or jan-dec), day of week (0-7 or sun-sat, both 0 and 7 are Sunday). Each field takes * (any), a number, a range a-b, a step */n or a-b/n, or a comma list. Classic cron quirk, honored here too: when day-of-month AND day-of-week are both restricted, the job runs when either matches, not both. Next-run times are computed in your browser's timezone; a server's cron uses the server's timezone.
