Pagination Mode

Dataview pagination mode provides the ability to select all employees across all pages that are returned in a Dataview and perform an action, for example, approve timecards.

• Click Tap Select All in a Dataview to select all records across all pages.
• After selecting all, you can use the existing Action Bar to perform limited actions.
• The count of employees across all pages as returned by the selected hyperfind/location appears in the banner at the top of the page.

Supported Actions

The following actions are supported for multiple employees across all pages in Pagination mode:

Not supported for all employees

The following actions are not supported for all selected employees across all pages by category:

Not supported for more than 3500 employees

The following actions are not supported for more than 3500 employees.

The following functionality applies to Pagination mode.

• Show/Hide Data columns
• Right-click actions, for example, the Go to control.
• Select employees and perform actions
• Page filter
• Employee name page control

While in Pagination mode, you can filter on the page that you are viewing in the Dataview. Use the Show Filters Row or Refine control to apply one or more filters. When you navigate through the Dataview, the filter carries over from page to page.

While in Pagination mode, you can navigate between pages to view data for all employees or location names, using the paging control that is located at the bottom of the Dataview.

• Click Tap the right caret to page through the Dataview, or enter a number in the number box.
• Depending on the type of Dataview, on each page you can view either:
  • The first and last name of the first employee and last employee in Employee Dataviews.
  • The first and last name of the first location and last location in Business Structure Dataviews.
  • To the left of the paging control, the first and last employee or location names on the page appear in blue.
  • Select the down caret next to the names. The first and last employee or location names for all the pages in the Dataview are displayed. You can select any of the items and navigate to that page.

The following limitations apply to Pagination mode.

• Some Dataview functionality is disabled in Pagination mode including:
  • Sorting
  • Group By
  • Calculate (SUM, AVG, MIN, MAX, COUNT)
  • Charting
  • Save (Personalization)
  • Print
  • Export

  • If you have access to more than 3500 employees and create a Chart tile on a Home page, the associated Dataview must be personalized to use a hyperfind that does not trigger pagination mode or the chart will not render.

• Pagination mode is not available in mobile.

For dataviews that have a large volume of data but do not exceed the static pagination limits of 300 locations or 3500 employees, a calculated threshold is used that, when exceeded, enables dynamic pagination. The threshold is a variable limit that is dependent on the number of columns configured in the dataview. It is calculated using the following equation:

10,000,000/ the number of columns in the dataview = the calculated threshold

If the calculated threshold is less than then system setting threshold of 500,000, then the calculated threshold is used as the limit. The limit is rows per page.

Dynamic pagination

Dataviews that exceed the calculated threshold open in dynamic pagination mode, which differs from the static pagination mode used for dataviews that exceed the static limits (300 locations or 3500 employees). Dynamic pagination behavior:

• Page count grows as you page through the dataview and the data renders. When you refresh the dataview, the initial page count appears.
• Filters apply across the whole response and the page count adjusts accordingly so there are no blank pages.
• Filters can reduce the response to below the threshold and allow, for example, charts to render.
