Question

max number of doc links?

Workflow Laserfiche Version 10

Updated September 17, 2021

asked on September 16, 2021

Anyone know what the max number of doc links an entry can have? I am considering doc links for 60+ entries to point to one. It could fluctuate upwards. Curious if anyone knows the max or if there is a better way to go about it.

Thanks!

There isn't a limit documented in https://support.laserfiche.com/kb/1012452/laserfiche-server-specifications-system-limits. As a practical matter, dialogs where the listings aren't paged can lag and be less responsive when you get into the thousands or tens of thousands of items. I would expect no problems for "just" 100 links.

That said, the user experience of dealing with so many links isn't going to be great, I would imagine. Why do you need so many and how are they going to be used?

Thanks for the info Brian. That is a great link to reference!

The doc to receive all the links is a log basically showing multiple invoice payment transactions. Let me just put it out there that I am trying to avoid using QuickFields because of cost/budget for this project. The files come in as RTF file types to it is basically pure, clean text. I have used Workflow pattern matching (regular expressions) to to pull 3 fields from each page.

I don't believe the purpose of these docs is anything more than an audit trail, so I would rather not put in the effort on splitting pages, moving them and populating metadata. Rather just leaving a link within the invoice documentation to link back to this log should do the trick.

Any thing come to mind as a better way?

Thanks so much. Seriously.

It seems reasonable, it sounds like the type of use case the feature was designed for.
