Background processing helps handle time-consuming tasks without slowing down your work. It runs these tasks behind the scenes, so you can keep working without interruptions. This approach also makes systems run more efficiently.

Example:
Imagine a requirement where employees needs to send daily report of total cases created on a given day regularly, then instead of manually sending the report regularly, the system can be set up to handle this automatically in the background. If employees need to send these reports manually, it would impact their productivity. Instead, the system can be set up to handle these reports automatically in the background.

Using tools like Pega Platform™, you can create rules to schedule or automate tasks like file uploads. These tasks can run on separate servers or during off-peak hours, so employees can focus on other work, like managing new cases, without delays. This improves both productivity and system performance.
