Some operations, such as transferring times to the payroll system, can take a long time to perform. Therefore, these operations are typically performed as background jobs. Instead of starting the operation and waiting until it is completed, IFS Applications performs the operation as a background job on the server. This means that you can continue working with your application while the server performs the operation for you.
You can manage your background jobs through the Background Jobs window, which you find in the General folder in IFS Navigator.
