Voucher Scheduled Tasks
Background jobs for voucher lifecycle management, expiration, and reactivation
The Voucher scheduled tasks manage voucher status transitions, including marking vouchers as expired when they pass their expiry date and reactivating vouchers that are no longer in use.

Overview
Voucher tasks work together to manage voucher availability:
- Expiration - Automatically expire vouchers that are past their valid date
- Reactivation - Restore vouchers to available status when orders are cancelled or carts abandoned
Common Use Cases
Automated Expiration
Use Voucher Expiration to automatically invalidate vouchers past their expiry date, preventing customers from using outdated promotional codes.
Voucher Recovery
Enable Voucher Reactivation to automatically make vouchers available again when the associated order is cancelled or the cart is abandoned, ensuring customers can reuse their vouchers.
