Background Jobs is a view option in the Permit Editor. It shows a list of jobs that are either queued or completed. These jobs run in the background to help save or bill out your permit.
The Permit Editor will automatically run and complete background jobs. It does this when you Bill Out more than 100 reservations or save a permit with 200 or more reservations.
You can view the list of background jobs for a permit. Click the View > Background Jobs button in the Facility Permit Editor.

Complete Background Jobs
When the background job completes, Recreation Management will alert you using the notification in the top right corner of the toolbar. The notification includes the Job ID # to distinguish between different queued jobs. You can navigate to view the details by clicking on the OK button. If you want to view the details later, click Cancel. You can view details with the Background Jobs view in the Permit Editor.
