What is a Background Process?

To improve performance, most Billing Central processes are in the background. The Background Process object contains information on the execution of some of those background processes. The records enable you to view the execution status, start and end times, as well as access the logs to review additional information and any errors that might have occurred.

Depending on which action started the process, background process records can have one of the following types:

  • "Calculate Tax with Avalara"
  • "Consolidation"
  • "Undo Consolidation"
