System Variable 1189: Prompt User to Narrow a Page's Filter When More Than the Following Number of Items Are Being Loaded

Use this System Variable to set a threshold value for how many jobs WorkBook can load before a notification that a large number of jobs are about to be loaded displays.

When the number of jobs triggers this warning, the following message displays: You are about to load a very large number of jobs.

This can take a long time and degrade system performance. WorkBook recommends that users further filter the list of jobs to reduce the number.

Users can then do any one of the following:
  • Click Adjust Filter, and then narrow the job filter to reduce the number of jobs.
  • Click Continue to load the large number of jobs anyway.
  • Close the notification dialog box, which has the same effect as clicking Continue.

If you set System Variable 1189 to 0 (zero), the notification does not display.

The default value for this setting is 0.

System Variable 1189's threshold applies to job list views 1, 2, 3, 4, 13, and 17.
