Document Central usage for large quantities
Problem:
- When the number of documents in Document Central exceeds the threshold set in the Module Setup, the Page-view of Document Central opens instead of the Datagrid.
- The Page-view is chosen for better performance when opening, but it only presents data from the document entries and lacks metadata bound to each document entry.
- This limitation restricts the overview of document-specific data, making it difficult to find the right document in a large set.
- Filters can be used to narrow down the set of documents, but filtering on all metadata-values is performance-intensive and the presentation of results still lacks an overview of relevant metadata
Desired Solution:
- Display a small, configurable number of metadata per document entry while using the Page-view.
- Alternatively, allow the use of the Datagrid even with large quantities of documents bound to a specific Business Central record (approximately up to 100K) without mayor losses in performance.
