Do a search in the guides for 'Audit'....:) -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of Dwayne Martin Sent: Wednesday, June 10, 2009 10:38 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Fwd: RE: How long does it take to display a display-only field? SOLVED
Eric, Thank you for a GREAT idea! Put the field on an un-used view. Frederick, what we are doing is creating a change log showing who changed what fields and when. So "On Modify" a filter queries the database to get the present values, and write these into the disply-only fields. There is a separate filter for each field, and if that field has changed, the filter writes a line to the log showing the old and new value. Is there a better way to do this? I should probably ask that question in a different thread. Thanks both of you, Dwayne ---- Original message ---- Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2009 15:05:25 +0000 From: "Roys, Eric D" <eric.r...@verizonbusiness.com> Subject: RE: How long does it take to display a display-only field? To: marti...@jmu.edu Dwayne, If the fields are temp fields only used for workflow processing and the user will never see them, you can put them on a separate view of the form. By doing so they will still be accessible to workflow but will not impact load time. There is a caveat with this approach as either table fields or attachments still need to be on the displayed view (sorry been awhile so I don't recall which). An example of this approach was taking the OTB Help Desk form, moving all temp fields to a new view (call it temp or whatever). This took load time from nearly 1.5 minutes to 30 seconds in a shared development/uat environment (2 instances on a single host).

To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG That's a real guess, but it could take anywhere from 1/2 a second to several seconds depending on what you have to do to fill each field. (and if they are lookups is the data indexed for the lookup) Also are you going to fill them by client side Active Links or serve side Get Filters?
