Monitor
Jobs are background processes which the server executes. Updating the Live Plan or a dashboard, or running a build are examples of jobs. The 
Monitor topic provides access to information about currently-running and scheduled jobs. Users with the required permissions can schedule jobs and explicitly launch jobs.
Scheduling and running jobs are, for the most part, a topic for administrators. However, there may be times when, as an end user, you need to check the status or outcome of some job. You can do that in the Monitor topic. The topic is available when working in a project or in the global (Repository) scope.
Jobs pane
Jobs pane of the Monitor page shows any currently-running jobs and various details such as when it was started, and the current status.
For example, if you click the Update link of some dashboard and go to the Monitor topic, you see the job in the Jobs pane. The Status column indicated whan a job is finished, and you can remove the job by clicking Remove Finished Jobs, which is enabled on completion of the selected job.
Jobs consume system resources and can significantly slow the system for other users, depending on the type and scope of the job. It's a good idea to bear this in mind when deciding to explicitly run a job.
Scheduled Jobs pane
The Scheduled Jobs pane displays the jobs currently scheduled by the system configuration. If you have permission, you can select one or more jobs in the list and run them immediately. The preceding warning about jobs and system resources applies here too. For more information on scheduled jobs, see: Configure the Scheduler.
