Background jobs are actions that run across multiple properties in the background, such as assigning central services or linking local services to a central service. As a revenue manager or administrator, you track and manage these jobs to monitor progress and catch failures early. This means you can complete large-scale changes across your entire portfolio without checking each property individually. You access and manage these jobs in Mews Multi-Property.
ⓘNote: Currently, background jobs are available for Services in Mews Multi-Property. This feature is being extended to other features over time.
