I got you. Yes, I was looking for a scheduling system with less configuration where I knew about the Django appscheduler is a very common and popular library for this. But I’m not getting an appropriate solution. ---

Read the docs on Django Appscheduler. It _still_ requires an external process be run. You cannot manage this from within your Django process. ---

Thanks. So seems I need to go ahead with celery beat or cron. [Previous page](https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/update-value-certain-time-later-using-django-appscheduler/18281.md?page=1)
