Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.
The notice is not an error but a message stating that there are pending Action Scheduler actions that were not completed.
If you check the actions past due you’ll see that are not showing only the actions from our plugin but also from others that have missed their schedule.
This happens because we have updated the ActionScheduler library to one of the latest versions that include this new view in the actions list.
You can read more about this update from that library and the changelog here: https://github.com/woocommerce/action-scheduler/releases/tag/3.5.0
I hope that helps.
Thank you.

Hello Travis Nadge,
The notice is not an error, but a message stating that there are pending Action Scheduler actions that were not completed.
You can follow either of the following steps to remove the warning:
1. Please add the following filter to remove the warning:
add_filter( 'action_scheduler_pastdue_actions_check_pre', '__return_false' );
1.1 Here is a tutorial on how to do it:
https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/
2. Open the Action Scheduler page, click on the Pending tab, Select all and delete them using the Bulk Action dropdown:
https://i.rankmath.com/XBucZ8
Normal WordPress installation path:
/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-status&tab=action-scheduler
WordPress installation with WooCommerce in it:
/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-status&tab=action-scheduler
3. You can set up a real cron job for the same:

https://www.google.com/search?q=wp+cron+replace+with+real+cron
Please stay advised that the Action Scheduler will not run if there are no visitors to the site (just like WP’s own cron). Even Action Scheduler, the library that is used in the RM plugin, states that “Actions that are past-due have missed their scheduled date; because of how WP Cron works, it is normal to have some past-due actions.”
I hope that helps.
Thank you.
