 | |
| ## Background Tasks
 | |
| 
 | |
| In addition to managing the database and providing a web interface, InvenTree runs various background tasks;
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Blocking Operations
 | |
| 
 | |
| Some tasks (such as sending emails or performing bulk database actions) may take a significant amount of time. Instead of delaying the response to the user, these tasks are handled by the background task manager.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Periodic Tasks
 | |
| 
 | |
| Some tasks must be performed on a periodic basis. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Django Q 
 | |
| 
 | |
| InvenTree uses the [django-q](https://django-q.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) background task manager.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Admin Interface
 | |
| 
 | |
| Scheduled tasks can be viewed in the InvenTree admin interface.
