Description
Description:
In previous 6.2.10, we used the Сron Text Parser expression to sync with LDAP 2 times a day at the correct time. In version 6.3.0 it is no longer possible to set your own expression, but there is only a choice of 5 options.
Steps to reproduce:
Open Administration->Settings->LDAP->Enterprise->Background Sync
Expected behavior:
Text input field supporting Cron Text Parser expressions
Actual behavior:
Drop down list with 5 options

Research direction
Start in Administration → Settings → LDAP → Enterprise → Background Sync and compare the field behavior between versions 6.2.10 and 6.3.0. Restore support for Cron Text Parser expressions such as "at 21:00 also at 01:00", and verify that custom scheduling is available instead of only five dropdown options.
