Setup a cron for multiple commands in a single line

I execute a sh file using command ./abc.sh abc_config

How do we get this done via cron ? for a single command i usually do

5 0 * * * /test/abc.sh

But for ./abc.sh abc_config I am a little confused

One option could be to store the script and it's argument in another script and run that instead?

5 0 * * * /test/run_abc.sh

Contents of run_abc.sh

./abc.sh abc_config

You should possibly include paths and a "shebang" matching whatever shell you want to use, ie:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
/path-to-dir-where-program-is/abc.sh abc_config
