Hi, I have encountered the following situation: I have to import a file with 2 million records in AX365 using the data management framework, the problem is that when I import it, the records get copied really fast to the staging table, but when they get transfered to the main table they take a really long time, I assume it is because it executes the insert row by row, so an insert_recordset would be the way to solve it. Now, the problem is that I don't know what method to override to execute the insert_recordset instead of a normal insert, and I haven't found any proper documentation on what each method does on data entities. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi GreenGrimms,

You cannot change the logic related to writing records to the target table. You can use the batch framework and use entity settings to indicate more batch helpers per entity.

You can find this setting in the Data Import/Export Framework Parameters.

Click Entity Settings and then the button Configure entity execution parameters. There you can set a threshold and number of batch helpers which really speeds up the import part.
