Get Data Only On Demand
How to Turn off automatic display of data on Search pages
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:
1. Go to Set Up Files > Set Up Options > Other Options
2. Uncheck the option ‘Get data automatically on search pages’
3. Click Save
As this will affect all users in your company – we suggest that you communicate this to your people in advance of making the change.
