Hello guys:

Under which conditions a job is queued in Pending status? Is this because of a job from the same template is already running?

Hope someone can help me with this question. Thanks in advance

Make sure the job is set to concurrent. They will stall if that is not set. Also look at things like inventory syncs and project syncs.
