# Skip execution while in progress

Enabling or disabling this field defines whether only one request should be executed at a time or multiple requests can be executed simultaneously. Users can decide to disallow multiple requests simultaneously by leaving the toggle button enabled for “skip execution while in progress” in the Details tab of the ETL pipeline or Process template.\
\
By default, it is enabled. An enabled toggle button defines that the execution of this ETL pipeline or Process will be skipped when there is one already in progress. Users can disable the toggle button to disallow multiple requests to be processed.
