Background Jobs in the Permit Editor

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.
