### User receives notification for queued job

:width: 600px
```

### If the job fails, the user will receive a notification for the erroneous job

```

````{note}
In case *multiple jobs* are triggered at the same time in a short time period the user will not get flooded with notifications, instead he receives a single notification.

## Good to know

powerJobs Client is primarily used to monitor jobs that are submitted directly within the Vault Client, or with the help of [powerEvents](powerevents:index) and [powerVault](powervault:index) customizations.

However, it can also be easily [configured](/configuration) to become active in other processes which use a [VDF Vault connection](https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/vault-products/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2014/ENU/Vault/files/GUID-5FE06775-9EF2-4FFA-9945-AB6D853966FD-htm.html), for example in:

* Inventor
* AutoCAD
* AutoLoader
* JobProcessor
* [powerJobs Processor](powerjobs_processor:index)

Because powerJobs Client is a Vault *WebServiceExtension* it can be loaded in *every application* which uses the **Autodesk.Connectivity.WebServices.dll**.
