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

  1. ETL+ requests the first X rows of a table as specified in Extraction pages.

  2. ETL+ receives rows of data from OData and saves them to the ETL+.

  3. Assuming the OData table has more rows then
    ETL+ waits the milliseconds specified in Pause before requesting more data from OData.

  4. Repeat until all rows are loaded.
