Jobs & Automation

Offload the heavy lifting to a reliable background job engine with scheduling, retries and monitoring.

The engine

Background work runs on a Hangfire-backed job engine. Jobs are queued or recurring, survive restarts, and are observable through a dashboard, so long-running or scheduled work never blocks a web request.

Schedules

Recurring work is defined with cron expressions. Report delivery, data imports and third-party syncs all run on schedules you control.

// Recurring: sync sales every night at 2am
RecurringJob.AddOrUpdate(
    "nightly-sales-sync",
    () => SalesSync.Run(),
    "0 2 * * *");

Common uses

  • Scheduled report generation and email/FTP delivery
  • Nightly data imports from POS, CRM and payroll systems
  • Third-party API syncs and webhook fan-out
  • Event-driven workflow triggers

Reliability

Jobs get automatic retries with backoff, queue prioritization and a monitoring dashboard. Failures are logged and surfaced, so operations stay observable at scale.

The same engine powers report scheduling and connector syncs.
