Setting Supplemental Data Governors

In Supplemental Data, you can set governors on Collection attributes to improve application performance. The system provides default settings, which you can decrease or increase up to the maximum value. It enforces the maximum limits when objects are created.

For example, you can specify the maximum number of Calculated attributes per Collection. When you create Calculated attributes, if the number of attributes is below the maximum value, the system creates the attributes. If the maximum limit has been reached, the attributes are not created and the system returns a validation message that the number is out of range. You can also specify the maximum number of Dimension attributes, number of sections per Form Template, and number of attributes per Form Template Section, number of attributes displayed on Data Analysis, and maximum number of items displayed in a list.

To set Supplemental Data governors:

  1. On the Home page, click Application, and then click Supplemental Data.

  2. Click the System Settings tab on the left.

  3. On the System Settings page, click the Governors link.

  4. Specify a maximum value of attributes or leave the default setting:

    • Maximum Number of attributes displayed on Data Analysis

    • Maximum Number of Items displayed in a List (default is 10000).

  5. Click Save.
