Get Data Only On Demand

Turn off automatic display of data on Search pages

All search pages in AccountAbility operate on the basis that when you load the search page – the system will retrieve the data according to the filters set.

Additionally, when any filter is changed then the system will automatically re-fresh the data according to each filter change as it is applied

Some users would prefer that the system not retrieve the data until requested – the reason is that where you want to say apply 3 or 4 different filters to a search page, it can be slow to do that because the data is reloaded each time each individual filter is applied.

Accordingly, there is a Company level option which changes this behavior on all search pages, so that the data will only be loaded/refreshed when the user clicks a new ‘GET DATA’ button. If your company would like to apply that new behaviour – you can change the option as follows:

Go to Set Up Files / Set Up Options /Other Options’ un-check the option ‘Get data automatically on search pages’.

As this will affect all users in your company – we suggest that you communicate this to your people in advance of making the change.
