Hi everyone.
I have this requirement to import over 15000 lines of vendor invoice journal lines. These were supposed to be imported on a single journal batch. But the import won't move past 2000 lines and gets pretty much stuck after 4 hours. So I decided to turn off the two business validations in the entity structure since I know these settings usually cause the slowness of the import. Please take note that I am importing these in a batch process.
The import went fast and consistent. It was completed in under 1 hour. However, during posting we have encountered errors regarding with these lines. The error was no exchange rate for the currency that I've specified in lines. It's weird since we had one setup for this. Therefore I did a test import for 1 line only with "Run business logic in insert or update method" turned on. After that, I tried posting this line and it went successful.
After doing that test, it was clear to me that running that business logic does something in the background while the record is being inserted. However, that business logic causes a really slow import. So to mitigate this, I've decided to divide the lines across several journal batches. Each journal batch have only 1000 lines each.
But even with 1000 lines. The import is still slow. I'm having like 1 record inserted per second as I watch the import status. And not only that, the slowness is not consistent. It gets exponentially slower every minute that passes. It's now like 1 record per 5 seconds. So far I have imported 3 sets of these, meaning 3000 lines in a whopping 12 hours of import.
Can someone please help me with this issue? I have also tried importing via X++ code, but to no avail. It seems like business logic is automatically included while importing with X++ and therefore the slowness is exactly the same with data management import.
