• Multiple Data Scanners for a single object cannot run concurrently. When a Data Scanner configured for a specific object is running, and another Data Scanner configured for the same object is triggered, the newly triggered Data Scanner is placed in a queue and is triggered after the current execution is complete. This limitation applies to Data Scanners that are triggered manually or automatically by System Jobs, but does not impact automatic scans triggered by record updates.
• The number of Data Scanners for multiple objects that can run concurrently is configured in the Maximum Concurrently Processing Data Scanners field in the active System Setting record. When the number of currently running Data Scanners reaches this limit, newly triggered Data Scanners are placed in a queue and triggered after the number of current executions falls below the configured maximum. This limitation applies to Data Scanners that are triggered manually or automatically by System Jobs, but does not impact automatic scans triggered by record updates.
