Description

SSP performs a number of background tasks to synchronize data, generate system emails and calculate statuses.  The tasks are background jobs that SSP runs without any user interface to view the processes while executing.  The status of the jobs and information about the latest execution are accessible via direct database access/query.  Each of the tasks are configurable to run at various intervals and/or specific times.  Many have related configuration that should be reviewed in order to achieve the desired results.  An admin interface to view the primary background job details is new to v2.8 in the administrator's System Configuration folder as Background Jobs.  The jobs are listed by the Job Name as described below, and a few can be executed by the administrator.  It is extremely important to understand the impact of executing a job during peak hours before starting a job.
