FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is batch Apex class in Salesforce?

Batch class in salesforce is used to run large jobs that would exceed normal processing limits. Using Batch Apex, you can process records asynchronously in batches to stay within platform limits.

Can we call batch class from Apex?

The code to run the batch Apex job is placed within another Apex class that implements the 'schedulable' interface. This class can be scheduled to run using the Apex Scheduler in Setup. However, there are other ways to invoke a batch Apex class.

How does batch Apex work?

Each time you invoke a batch class, the job is placed on the Apex job queue and is executed as a discrete transaction. This functionality has two awesome advantages: Every transaction starts with a new set of governor limits, making it easier to ensure that your code stays within the governor execution limits.
