You have searched the forum, docs and current code for clues so that you are not reinventing here?
yes, @clarkej.
I didn’t get anything about using cron for scheduler. I have goe through Doc Example but did not get anything. and cron expresion from http://www.cronmaker.com/ is not working.

You may need to implement a custom script to run periodically to detect these and emit the notices.
Yes i got this what i have to do… but i stuck with cron expresion. i just start with running scheduler after every 10 min to pop up something, but didn’t get any success. Have you used cron expression anywhere in erpnext ?

No my experience is limited to reading.

The more details of precisely what you have done, with code or traceback references, the better folks can respond with advice.
Hello @clarkej.
For just initial Testing purpose and to gone throght scheduler, i have just set 2 codes.
one in frappe-bench/apps/erpnext/hr/doctype/employee/employee.py
def change_status(): frappe.db.sql("""update tabEmployee set status='Left' where branch is null""")
one in frappe-bench/apps/erpnext/erpnext/hooks.py
scheduler_events = { "cron": { "*/5 * * * *": [ "erpnext.hr.doctype.employee.employee.change_status" ] } }
ok some ideas questions thoughts -
how do you run the code - maybe a screenshot for context?
what response do you get, confirmation in the logs, tracebacks and so on?
have you found any kind of test to demo how it works?
what howto docs and posts have you used for resources?
cheers!
As i am working on scheduler so, it should run automaticaly at every scheduler event, like i have written cron expression to run python code at every 3rd minute. so it sholud run at every 3rd minute.
I have used https://frappe.io/docs/user/en/tutorial/task-runner for reference.
Thanks 
I working on erpnext 7.2.6 and frappe 8.0.14 . Are they both version supported cron or not ?
"Are they both version supported cron or not ?’
I couldn’t say, you would need to check the release notes and/or code for that info.

will yield this that notes v9 cron string
