Cascading changes (assign, delete) that affect more than 100 records will be processed in the background asynchronously. This allows users to resume interaction with the UI sooner and reduces UI and database timeouts when processing cascading changes. Processing these changes in the background allows for a higher rate of success when large numbers of records are involved and prevents the changes from blocking other processes that are being run on the system.

There will be a delay between when the initial change is made and when all records have been processed. The delay duration will be based on the number of records processed. The status of the background processing can be viewed in the Settings for the organization using the Jobs list.
