3. Process Settings

  • Quick List Limit: The maximum number of records you want to be loaded into memory for display. (You will be able to view additional records without re-querying; this simply determines how many records will be displayed at once.)
  • List View Limit: The maximum number of records that will be totaled in a list view.
  • Process Memory: The system memory allocated to each process you open.
  • Update Time: The time of day that the once-a-day processing occurs. This includes Credit Hold processing. You should make sure that this does not happen at the same time you might be backing up the data file.
