    About this task

    SLA processing runs asynchronously. For example, you can run this for performance reasons, such as to avoid delays when a user saves a new incident record. While the SLA engine is running asynchronously, there can be a short delay before the Task SLA records are available after updating a Task. Refresh the form to see the updated Task SLAs.

    Use synchronous processing to get the best user experience. Asynchronous processing mode is used only when there a performance issues.

    Note:
    In the 2010 engine, the Process SLAs business rule runs the asynchronous processing.
