 ### When is it relevant to create a changelog entry
 
 We should not create a changelog entry every single time we make a change to the platform. The rule is to warn users only when we introduce something that they will benefit from. A bug fix is not something they will benefit from and is not worth mentioning. Simple visual changes, unless they drastically change the UI, should not be mentioned. Anything made on the Docker image or a packaging issue should not be mentioned.

+## Failed Jobs queue
+
+PostgreSQL users who previously failed Monica's update may receive errors similar to these:
+
+> SQLSTATE[Number]: Duplicate table: 7 ERROR:  relation "**failed_jobs**" already exists (SQL: create table "failed_jobs" ("id" bigserial primary key not null, "connection" text not null, "queue" text not null, "payload" text not null, "exception" text not null, "failed_at" timestamp(0) without time zone default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP not null))
+
+> SQLSTATE[Number]: Duplicate table: 7 ERROR:  relation "**failed_jobs**" already exists
+
+The problem is solved by running the command:
+
+```
+php artisan queue:flush
+```
+...with the appropriate privileges.
+
+Immediately after (through a tool like `psql`) access the Monica database and run this command:
+```
+DROP TABLE "failed_jobs";
+```
+This will ensure that the failed job table has actually been deleted.
