Asynchronous mode allows a workflow process to run independently without the user having to wait for completion, with the process being submitted to the workflow process manager to execute later. In contrast, in synchronous mode the user must wait for the entire process to finish before getting control back. Asynchronous mode is helpful for processes involving large amounts of processing where the user does not need immediate access to the results. There are two main ways to execute workflows asynchronously using either workflow policies or a runtime event business service combination.

User does not have to wait for process User have to wait for 1 to complete. process to complete.
User gets back the control immediately
and the workflow is submitted to User gets control back only 2 workflow process manager (WPM) as when the Work Flow finished a job to be executed. WPM then its execution. executes the job later.
This is helpful in functionality where
large amount of processing needs to 3 be done on an object and user is not going to use the effect or access just after
