Hi

Async business rules are similar to after rules in that they run after the database commits a change. Unlike after rules, async rules run in the background simultaneously with other processes. Async business rules allow the system to return control to the user sooner but may take longer to update related objects

Check the below link.

Another difference is that 'previous' cannot be referenced in async rules, and 'current' cannot be referenced on 'delete'

'After' example(s):

• On a child task, update field on parent record and redirect to parent
  • The user will be redirected to the parent, so you want the business rule to be executing before returning control to the user
• If a field changes from X to Y, do something
  • async rules cannot do previous condition checks, so use after

Async example:

• When a parent is closed, close all children
  • This operation could take a while, it is best to return control to the user immediately and work in the background
