Hi Barry, 

cron jobs are used to automate some tasks. This is mainly deleting old accounts 
or reminding users before their password expires. 

https://www.ldap-account-manager.org/static/doc/manual/ch03s02.html#idm45792636460688

If you do not use any of this functionality there is no need to run the cron 
job. On the configuration page is also a button to check database connection. 

Best regards 
Roland
