Documentation
Definition
Defines whether conditions of a condition group type are buffered in the main memory.
Use
The buffering indicator is valid for standard conditions only, and defines whether conditions of a condition group type are stored in the tables FICOT_CONDI_BUFF und FICOT_POS_BUFF, which are buffered in the main memory. Buffering provides quicker access to the conditions than if you were to read them from the database or from the unbuffered tables FICOT_CONDI and FICOT_POS.
If you set the indicator for conditions that were used already, the change is not valid until a new condition group is created. Conditions of an existing condition group remain in the unbuffered or buffered tables and are not converted.
Note
You should always set the buffering indicator. Note however, that the capacity of the main memory is not as large as that of the database.
