Many reports create temporary data files to generate the report. Enabling this option will cause the report temporary file to be created on the workstation's local hard drive. The default setting for this option is blank or “No”.

 

This operation should increase report performance and reduce network traffic.

 

Changing this option setting will require you to completely restart the entrée application.

 

Internal testing with this modification produced dramatically faster results on workstations equipped with a fast processor and at least 4GB of RAM.  Slower workstations generating reports with this option produced slower results than if the report's temp file was generated on the server.  Based upon feedback from our customer base, we may enable the option to be set per user account, so that it will only be used on faster workstations. If using this new option, please communicate your own results with NECS.
