Auto-apply customer payment jobs are taking a long time to process.
You've scheduled a large number of periodic auto apply jobs to run in a short period of time.
When you schedule a large number of auto apply jobs to run in a short period, Workday will start queuing the jobs if it’s unable to complete an auto apply job before the next scheduled job starts. This can impact tenant performance.
Schedule a longer interval between periodic auto apply jobs. Example: hourly or daily where possible.

You are setting up bank integrations for processing settlements using the WPN - BACS Standard 19 Payment (Enhanced Performance) integration template with the
