Increased Productivity of Get Config Info for Large Organizations

If the organization has a large number of properties, you can now retrieve configuration data faster by specifying the range of records to retrieve. A new option named Get Record by Index? is now available on the dialog box that appears when you click the Get Config Info button. Selecting this option enables the Start Index and the Maximum Records Count fields in which you can define the record range to retrieve for the configuration type. If you do not enter a value into these fields, Transaction Services retrieves all data for the corresponding configuration type in the entire property, as it did previously. You can enter any value for the Maximum Records Count; however, Oracle recommends passing a value less than 15001.

The following example describes how you can pass values for the Start Index and the Maximum Records Count:

For example, if a property has 13,000 menu item master records, you need to call the Get Config Info method three times, provided the maximum records per call is 5000.

• Call 1

  • Start Index : 1

  • Maximum Records Count: 5000

• Call 2

  • Start Index : 5001

  • Maximum Records Count: 5000

• Call 3

  • Start Index : 10001

  • Maximum Records Count: 3000
