NOTES: Extraction pages and Pause Settings
These parameters control how ETL+ queries data from OData in conjunction at the ETL+ level.
These settings along with the Key+ setting on the ETL+ Design Page may prevent time-out conditions. These sett
The use of these parameter is part of the Acumatica certification requirements which are designed to be manage demands on OData/Acumatica resources.
ETL+ extract and load process
ETL+ requests the first X rows of a table as specified in Extraction pages.
ETL+ receives rows of data from OData and saves them to the ETL+.
Assuming the OData table has more rows then
ETL+ waits the milliseconds specified in Pause before requesting more data from OData.Repeat until all rows are loaded.
