i have c# application when user click on button it do two thing
first save data into table using stored procedure
second save the same data in another server using stored procedure but this server is on another location and connection alittle slow
i need to make second procdure run async i don't need a result from it
as when user click he must wait to the two procedures to be completed
i need the user interface activated as soon as the first procedure completed

"no luck"
Do not rely on luck. You need to use logic, and your developer skill and experience.

so tell me what logic i should use?

Are you serious? Look at your question, it tells us nothing that would help to explain what is going on in your application. Please edit your question and add some proper details.

Instead of making it run asynchronously, why not use this method in C# instead of SQL stored procedure. See here, SqlCommand Class (System.Data.SqlClient) | Microsoft Docs[^], all that needs to be done for the second query is, you execute the function and forget that it was ever called. You can do that using the Async counterparts of the query execution functions.

SqlCommand.ExecuteReaderAsync Method (System.Data.SqlClient) | Microsoft Docs[^] (Explore other options for other type of queries)

If you use the Async counterparts, then you can execute the first stored procedure, wait for the response (asynchronously, as it helps you write reactive-apps and doesn't block the threads unnecessarily) and for the second one, just call the function and do not wait for a response. The down side for this? The Task that gets created would be in the Thread Pool and underlying framework would still assume that this needs to be processed and waited for, thus causing memory leaks if your app exits prematurely. In this case, you can use SQL counterpart (see below).

There are some things that you need to know before diving into that.
c# - Horrible performance using SqlCommand Async methods with large data - Stack Overflow[^]

But if you still want to go with a SQL approach, then you might want to use SQL Jobs and create a job that runs in the background, sql server - Can I launch a stored procedure and immediately return without waiting for it to finish? - Database Administrators Stack Exchange[^].

As usual there are a variety of ways you may be able to get around this, depending on your needs, the situation, and your abilities.

Within your application, you could use one of the SqlCommand objects asynchronous methods; such as ExecuteNonQueryAsync(). This is a relatively easy go to

SQL Agent- This could be used in a variety of ways, such as using as inserting your new data into a staging table and then running an Agent Job every so often to execute the stored procedure with that data.
A more advanced way of using the SQL Agent would be to create an SSIS package to perform an ETL function; grabbing the data from SQL 1 and applying the changes to SQL 2

And naturally, these may just be bandages fixing a symptom of poor DB design; so going through the schemas involved is always on the table.

and then there is the query that you are running; or to be more precise, the data being attached as parameters. Are you trying to push through a huge BLOB data element?
