+  * Times are Central time as SFX server is in Chicago. T
+  * There are index build jobs associated with the ebooks functionality which are not shown here. Best to check with support before adding another job which might conflict with "hidden" ones or with the backup.
+  * SFX Search AZ and RSI indexing is now done centrally by ExLibris and is not shown on our cron list.
+== To setup cron jobs ==
+     * For more information see the [[http://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/SFX/Product_Documentation/01_Version_4.0 | SFX users guides.]]
+      * To set up publisher autoloads: ./server_admin_util > 8 Import/Export > (Choose resource, can set up crons, run autoload, etc.). To edit, use crontab -e
+      * A list of cron jobs can be found Unix-side: Login>da>crontab -l
+      * Edit the crontab using "crontab -e" instead.
+      * Statistics reports crons can be setup via each of the Statistics Queries (sends to email) but old crons need to be removed UNIX side.
+      * Google Scholar job was setup by registration procedure in the KB, but edited in crontab to add ebook export.
+      * AZ, RSI and other index jobs also setup via server_admin_util. Can be edited in crontab.
