Deactivating Cron Job

If you want to cancel the cron job task without deleting the cron job, you need to perform the deactivation. To deactivate one or more cron jobs, follow these steps:

  1. On the Cron Tabs tab, select the active cron jobs you want to deactivate, by clicking the corresponding check boxes.

    Note: The state of a cron job is displayed in the State column.

    Click on the Deactivate button. The message box appears to ask you:

    Do you really want to deactivate 1 task(s)?

  2. Click OK to confirm your intention to deactivate the selected tasks.

As a result, the state of the selected cron jobs turns to Inactive, as you can see in the cron jobs list.
