How can I increase the extract output threshold?

When using any delivery type such as None, FTP, Email, the output generated will be stored in UCM only if the generated output file size is less than 10 MB.

However, complete output will be sent to the FTP server or email based on the delivery type selected. Use the appropriate delivery type such as, FTP for storing the complete output file that can be used for further processing.

Do the following:

  1. Select Setup and Maintenance.

  2. Click the Tasks icon on the right-hand side of the screen.

  3. Click Search, and search for Manage Common Lookups. Search for PAY_ACTION_PARAMETER_TYPE

  4. In PAY_ACTION_PARAMETER_TYPE: Lookup Codes search for BI_OUTPUT_SIZE.

  5. Add a lookup code to the BI_OUTPUT_SIZE to the lookup type PAY_ACTION_PARAMETER_TYPE.

  6. Go to My Client Groups > Payroll > Payroll Process Configuration.

  7. Add parameter name: Maximum BI Output Size for Direct HCM Upload and set Default value as 999999999999.

  8. In the Manage Payroll Process Configuration task in Setup and Maintenance, add the above parameter to the Default Group. The value is the count of bytes. So entering a 999999999999999 should allow a very large file.
