Optimizing a Parts Database

In the parts management you now have the possibility to optimize the current parts database for properties that are used in filters already defined and in the tree configurations.

Benefit:

By optimizing the parts database, the filters and the tree view in the parts management can be accelerated.

To perform this optimization the new menu item Optimize database is available under the [Extras] button. Which properties are optimized and which not, are displayed in the subsequent query. The optimization itself can take several minutes depending on the database size. During optimization all properties in the used prefilters, filters and tree configurations are determined, a priority is calculated for the properties and a database adapted to the used properties is created.

If you only use the filters and tree structures supplied by EPLAN, optimization of the parts database is not required. We recommend optimizing the parts database if the frequently used filters and tree configurations were centrally specified, standardized and distributed in your organization. Optimization also has an accelerating effect for filters and tree configurations that are defined later, if these use the previously optimized properties.
