Buffering

While you are verifying one form, Verify is normally gathering data from the next and storing it in a buffer.

If you want Verify to gather data from more than one form at a time, you can change the buffer size.

Effects:

• Buffering affects how much data is displayed during mass verification and fast verification.

• Buffering reduces the number of calls to the database. If your Verify module is hesitating too much, verification speed might increase with buffering.

To activate buffering

1. In the Job description dialog, click Buffering on the Verify tab.

2. Click Use buffering to select it.

3. Type the size of the buffer in the No. of forms box. It is normally not useful to have a buffer size of more than 10 forms, because too much data appears on the screen at once.

   The minimum number of forms in the buffer is 1. Even if you leave the default value 0 (zero) after buffering is activated, 1 is used.

4. Click OK.
