Steph/Rob, it is my understanding that you may be able to send me some instructions on how to manually run the CRON?

Any help will be very much appreciated.

You need to go to [address of your totara]/admin/cron.php and it will then manually trigger the cron. I'm not sure if that will force things to run more than they are set to (i.e. once daily things to run a second time in a day).

It's mainly only the program cron functions that do not run every cron run. Some program cron functions run hourly, some daily. Everything else will run every time you go to admin/cron.php.
