Order specifies a unique value for each AsynchronousCommand.

To run services or commands that can start at the same time, use asynchronous commands. To run commands that need to finish before other commands can start, use RunSynchronous commands instead.

All RunAsynchronous commands run in the system context.

Values

Asynchronous_command_order

Specifies a unique integer between 1 and 500.

Important
Unlike synchronous commands, the computer does not wait for one asynchronous command to finish before it starts the next command.
