Specifying How Many Forms Users Can Simultaneously Use

To enable users to work in more than one form at one time, you can update the DATA_GRID_CACHE_SIZE property, which specifies the number of data grids cached per user for an application. By default, this property is set to 1, allowing each user to have one form open and active at a time.

Caution:

Keep in mind that increasing this property value causes the application server to use more memory. For example, for an application with 100 users, by default the application server can cache up to 100 data grids. If this property is set to 3, up to 300 data grids can be cached. The impact on memory usage is greater for applications having very large forms.

To specify how many forms each user can simultaneously work in:

1. Select Administration, then Application, and then Properties.
2. To set properties for all Oracle Hyperion Planning applications, select System Properties.
3. Update the setting:

   • To add the property, click Add. In the blank row, enter DATA_GRID_CACHE_SIZE (avoid using spaces). Under Property Value, enter a number to represent the number of forms that a user can have open and active at one time.

   • To change the property, change its value under Property Value.

   • To delete the property, select its name, and then click Delete.

4. Click Save and confirm your changes.
5. Restart the Planning server.
