Setup CRON job where I can use SugarCRM framework

Hello,

I need to create a script that runs every day, grabs emails from inbox, parses these, and if it finds the info needed, duplicates some entries in SugarCRM, sets some fields etc.

I need to use the SugarCRM framework, code like:

$account = new Account();

$account->retrieve($invoice->billing_account_id);

What's the preffered way to include SugarCRM into cron script?

Thanks!

Thanks, looks pretty straightforward. What is the way to test the job while in development? Thanks!

Hello Vaclav,
After you create and install the scheduler, just create and activate it in Admin > Scheduler and you should be good to go. This is of course assuming that you have cron running and setup the cronjob for Sugar. This documentation should help you set that up.
Kind Regards,
