For any scheduled task we can directly use Laravel's queue but what if that task needs to be modified in some way before it gets executed? Laravel Scheduled Action package stores all the tasks that need to run on a future date & time and executes each only on the day when it is scheduled to run so that we get the chance to modify the task before it gets executed. It uses Laravel's task https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/scheduling to figure out & handle the tasks that need to be run for the current day at the specified time for that task and sends the task payload to a receiver class of your app (https://github.com/devsrv/laravel-scheduled-model-action#%EF%B8%8F-publish-config). So how to perform the task is totally up to you.

The scheduledaction:poll artisan command polls PENDING tasks for the present day and passes the tasks payload to your receiver class.
