# Suspense Elements

## Description

The <Suspense> and <MultiSuspense> elements control the ability to apply suspense to an activity.

A transaction can have a <Suspense> element or a <MultiSuspense> element, but not both.

If a <Suspense> element is present in the transaction, a Suspense tab will be available on the Activity Details screen with a Suspense field and a suspense record will be written in AsSuspense when the activity processes.

If a <Multisuspense> element is present in the transaction, a Suspense tab will be available on the Activity Details screen with a Suspense section and multiple suspense records will be written in AsSuspense when the activity processes.
