2.1.1 ASYNC Installation (Standalone and Co-Deployed)

If the mode of limits installation is selected as ASYNC (Standalone/Co-Deployed), the limits requests are logged with Limits Pending Status in OBCL Limits Queue. These pending limits requests are picked by a job to form the webservices XML requests. The status of the limit request is updated in OBCL based on the external limits response. The status can be Approved, Rejected or Timed-out. OBCL authorizes the transactions that are in Approved status.
