# Scheduled tasks

> Monitor the scheduled tasks BigBlueButton uses in Moodle for recording synchronization and background maintenance.

BigBlueButton uses Moodle scheduled tasks and background processing for maintenance work.

## Common examples

These tasks often handle:

* pending recording synchronization
* retrying recordings that were not found or were dismissed
* background recording maintenance
* notification processing

## Why admins should care

If recordings are delayed or missing, scheduled tasks are one of the first places to inspect.

Use Moodle’s scheduled task administration screens to confirm:

* tasks are enabled
* cron is running
* failures are not accumulating
