===============================

This is additional information about report scheduling for the `Cybersource Official Plugin` Prestashop extension.

Report Scheduling
-----------------

Schedulers for Linux and Mac systems are set up using a Cron Tab. The scheduler for a Windows system is configured using the Windows Task Scheduler app.  
When configuring a schedule for generating a specific report, use this format:  
**Format:** `<shop domain name>/module/cybersourceofficial/paymentReport`  
**Example:** `https://www.prestashop_8.2.2.com/module/cybersourceofficial/paymentReport`

Cron Tab Syntax for Mac and Linux Systems
-----------------------------------------

When setting up the reporting schedule on Linux or Mac, use crontab commands to determine how often and when the report is generated.  
The syntax is:  
\* \* \* \* \* \[command\]  
Each asterisk (\*) represents one of the timing parameters:

* Minute (0-59)
* Hour (0-23)
* Day of Month (1-31)
* Month (1-12)
* Day of week (0-6) 0 = Sunday

Cron Scheduler Setup
--------------------

1. Open a Linux or Mac terminal.
2. Enter `crontab-e` to enter editor mode.
3. Enter the command to set the timing for the cron job.
4. For example, for 15-minute intervals: `15 * * * * curl` https://www.prestashop_8.2.2.com/module/cybersourceofficial/paymentReport
5. Close the editor.
6. Enter `crontab -l` to check the scheduled cron job.
