In this screen you can follow the status of background processes.Open screen in browser Open Form

A background job is a program that is processed centrally, without requiring a logged on user. Background jobs are used for repetitive or time consuming processes. Background jobs automatically get less priority if multiple users are simultaneously active. The turnaround time may therefore change. See also Submit Background Job, Background Scripts and Background Schedulers.

Requested Start Time

The first possible point in time at which the user wants the background job to be executed.

Planned: the job is registered and will be started as soon as possible after the requested start time.

Unfinished: the job is not completed yet and thus has no end status.
