Hi,

Our customer using DIXF to export data into Excel files, and in the processing groups, we setup three entities, and put the sequences as 1, 2, 3. Also check the "Run business logic in insert or update method", "Run business validations".

I am not sure if only for exporting files, do the sequences really matter since we don't need to maintain the references like importing? And "Run business logic in insert or update method", "Run business validations" also do anything when exporting since there are no insert and update methods getting called.

Thanks,

It is not possible to have duplicate sequences per definition group, so you always have to specify this field.

Thanks André,

If I do not specify the sequences, does it mean DIXF will export to those files at the same time (in parallel) or still export as one single thread?

Hi Yuji,

When you export data, the sequence might not be important. Only when another process which would automatically pick up the files in a certain order. The methods you enabled are not executed during export of data. It is only used when importing data.
