Maximum number of multiline element (99)

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Andreas,
Yes the multiline element maximum is 99 and cannot be changed. There are obviously
performance and resource impacts when creating a large number of work items at once
hence the restriction.
To really want to create > 99 work items for the same task is
a little unusual to say the least.
Perhaps you could explain your scenario a little
more - there may be a better approach.

Subject: Maximum number of multiline element (99)
 
 
Hello together,
 
I have a question concerning the maximum number of the multiline element which can be found in a workflow task under 'other'. With this multiline element one defines the dynamic parallel processing of work items. As far as I know, the maximum number of work items created at run time is 99 and there
is no possibility to change this number towards higher values. Does anyone know about a solution or workaround to bypass this 99 number? I am not thinking about sending a workitem to 99+ people and only one of them choosing it, but to really create 99+ different workitems at the same time.
 
Any help is welcome!
 
Thanks + Best regards,
 
Andreas
