- Report Threshold Value for Batch Mode. Determines the number of result set lines above which a report must process in batch mode instead of as an online download. You can set values for each type of download file:
- CSV. The maximum number of output lines.
- XML. A percentage of the CSV threshold value (default is 20%).
For example, if the CSV report threshold is set to 3,000 result set lines, then an XML threshold value set at 20% must process in batch mode when it has 600 or more result set lines.
- All report detail columns are sortable.
