Limit the number of WI in inbox

[Mike Pokraka]

The only problem I've experienced is that over 32,000-odd items the item
count shown in the folder tree becomes corrupt. However if you have that
many items I think there are other more important issues to contend with. I
think the same may apply in your scenario: if users have 2000 items pending
then it may be time to review the way you're using workflow. 

 

You can always use the 'grouped by' views to filter WIs by task or
otherwise. 

 

Performance issues are related to the overall amount of open items, not just
a single user. In other words, of there are 50,000,000 workitems in a ready
status, then the user with 10 items in their inbox will have almost as bas a
response time as the user with 2000. 

 

Cheers, 

Mike

Subject: Limit the number of WI in inbox

 

Hi All,

 

Is there a maximum number limit for the number of Workitems in SBWP,

 

If there is none, then will the performance be effected when a user goes
into his inbox to forward workitems ?

 

If in anyway we can limit the number that is displayed to the user by task
or date, how would we go abt doing it ?

 

approximately they are expecting 2000 WI to be present in the inbox.

 

Appreciate any input

thank you

lalitha
