This is one of a few situations I've encountered where global fields at the server level would be useful.
If we could create a global field with a lifespan of a transaction (or, in this case, the run of the escalation), that retained its same value across all records (of all forms) across the entire transaction, then you could architect the workflow so that each record increments a global counter and those after the 500th would disregard the operation. There would still be some minimal processing overhead for the the additional records (those over #500), but it should significantly mitigate the issue described. Sorry for the sidetrack. -charlie On Mon, Sep 8, 2014 at 7:58 AM, Vikrant Kulkarni <[email protected]> wrote: > ** > > I would suggest look into RRR|Chive from rrr.se it just works fine in > this case. > On Sep 8, 2014 8:25 PM, "LJ LongWing" <[email protected]> wrote: > >> ** >> I don't believe so, an escalation will always iterate over all records >> that match the qual. >> >> >> On Mon, Sep 8, 2014 at 8:45 AM, MalviyaSaurabh < >> [email protected]> wrote: >> >>> Hi All, >>> I am in the process of archiving records in remedy.
