 my scheduled tasks are gone Cron is completely missing under system in fact.

I should create my posts while I am in front of the console.   Yes Cron is where you said but

  My full reason for the post is seeing scheduled jobs under system.   It can do similar but with less instructions?

I still have an ids rule I can't delete under Cron from a year ago. 

Which should be used going forward

There is no "Scheduled Jobs" menu entry on my OPNsense and the way to manage cron jobs is via System > Settings > Cron.

[Monviech (Cedrik)]

Scheduled jobs is a business edition feature to schedule one shot things that shouldn't repeat. E.g. a single system restart et al.

Easy to find in the docs:

In recent versions this was moved/changed, so you're probably not imagining it. The old Cron entry under System may no longer be where it used to be, depending on the edition/version and installed plugins.

First thing I'd check: go to System > Settings > Cron or search the menu for "cron" if your theme has the search box. Also check whether the os-cron package/plugin is still installed under System > Firmware > Plugins. If it's missing, reinstalling that should bring the cron UI back, but it won't necessarily recreate removed jobs if they weren't migrated. If you had custom scheduled tasks, it's worth checking your config backup to confirm whether they're still present there before changing too much.

... seems like thing that AI would say.  Just saying.  ;)
