+
+=================
+Scheduled actions
+=================
+
+Special worker
+--------------
+
+On Odoo.sh, cron jobs and incoming mails are handled by a specific worker that is not accounted in
+the workers on your subscription. It is a kind of "hidden free worker" bound to every Odoo.sh
+instance.
+
+By default, this worker can spawn multiple concurrent threads to execute scheduled actions. The
+number of threads can be dynamically increased at runtime. However, its exact amount cannot be
+predicted as it varies according to the number of extra workers in the subscription, the current
+concurrency of incoming mails, the current server's load, etc.
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+- The delay between a scheduled task's next execution date and the actual triggering depends on many
+  parameters and can be delayed according to the state of the execution pool of the shared server.
+- Scheduled actions on staging branches are executed less often than production build.
+- The platform deactivates scheduled actions that repeatedly time out.
+- If the execution time of a scheduled action is business-critical, then we recommend using a
+  dedicated server as the scheduled actions timeout can be modified in the project settings.
+- We cannot guarantee an exact running time for scheduled actions on the Odoo.sh platform.
