Use and manage the queue (AFAS Online and local)

This topic relates to the day-to-day use of the queue.

When using the queue, certain tasks are placed into the queue automatically and are performed in the background. After you have started a task it will go to the queue, and you can then continue to work normally in Profit. You do not have to wait until the task has been completed.

For AFAS Online the queue has already been configured, with the exception of the authorisation of the functions to consult and monitor the queue. For a local installation you decide for yourself whether you want to use the queue or not.

Tasks are run one at a time in the sequence in which they are placed in the queue. Small tasks can take precedence over larger tasks. With AFAS Online, the availability and performance of servers is monitored constantly to process tasks as quickly as possible. With a local installation you are responsible for this yourself.
