Application parameters

Note: Implementers must configure the following application parameters in order for the standard import process to work properly.

There are several application parameters that can control the behavior of the standard import process. These are defined with rows in the alwf_appl_parameters table. You can configure these application parameters using Infor SAT.

Application parameter Description Default value
HRtransactionSize Number of rows per database Commit. Can be configured for database optimization. 50
defaultReviewer The default Reviewer’s user login for all the users. No default
mail.from Email address of the sender No default
HRemailNotify Email address of the receiver No default
mail.host Name of the Mail Host No default
HRBkgERRole Used by the standard import background process. Name of group of type Role that has right to create ER document. *** Group Name refers to group_name column of the alco_group_defn database table. No default
HRBkgTSRole Name of group of type Role that has right to create TS document. *** Group Name refers to group_name column of the alco_group_defn database table. No default
HRBkgLogInterval This is the transaction interval at which the process logs a message showing the number of the transaction being processed. 1000
HRBkgPurgeStagingTables Used by the standard import background process. A "true" value for this parameter means that successfully imported staging table rows are to be purged. False
HRBkgFetchSize Number of BObs to be fetched at a time. The import process has to fetch BObs matching the staged data very often. This parameter controls how many are fetched at a time. 254
HRTokenFile Name (including path information) of the token file to which the Import process writes out: "HR Import Process Completed." at the end of a run. No default
HRBkgClearRequestCacheInterval This is the transaction interval at which the process clears its RequestCache. A higher value gives better performance, but requires more memory. 1
HRBkgApplyFieldMask Used by the standard import (HRBkg). When set to true, imported data are validated against their corresponding GUI field masks. Default is true. True
HRBkgReprocessOnErrors When set to true, the process is repeated until the number of error transactions does not decrease. This parameter can be used to eliminate errors that are due to the order in which the transactions are processed. For example, to inactivate an approver, all subordinates must be reassigned to other approvers first. With this parameter on, the reassignment of the subordinates' approvers and the approver inactivation can all be processed successfully. For performance reasons, it is recommended that the application parameter HRBkgPurgeStagingTables be set to true when this parameter is true. False
