However, negative offsets large enough to cause negative year values to be displayed in QPR Portal should not be used.

Note that this setting affects also situations where action attribute values of the type date are inputted. In those cases a reverse offset is applied to the values before inputting them to the database in order to maintain database consistency.

Model names in the list must be in double quotes, and in the case any model name contains double quotes, the quotes inside the name must be preceded by another double quotes. It is also advisable to put the whole list inside double quotes to ensure that the quotes are parsed properly.

If this value is changed, calculations which are not dependent on the results of other calculations are done in parallel in the defined amount of threads. The default value is 0, and in this case computers with a single processor use one thread for the calculation and computers with multiple processors use two threads. In the case there are less than 100 values to calculate, only one thread is used regardless of this setting.

ModelRecalculationPeriodChunkSize

Integer

Defines how many values (every single value under every period and series in a measure counts as a separate value) are included in one calculation transaction during model recalculation. The default value is 1200000, and reducing this value consumes less memory during recalculation, but makes the calculation slower and vice versa. Note that modifying this value is usually unnecessary unless models are extensively large.

ThresholdForFullModelRecalculation

Integer

Defines a threshold for triggering full model recalculation. The threshold is the amount of invalidated measure values after which instant invalidation of measure values is stopped and full model recalculation is automatically done after the operation which caused the measure value invalidation is completed. This option can be used to address situations where the amount of invalidated measure values causes memory consumption issues on the server. By default this is 0, which makes the option to use the value of the ModelRecalculationPeriodChunkSize key as the threshold.

TimeDependentFormulaRecalculationMode

Defines how models are loaded into the QPR Web Application Server at startup.

0 = Base models and published models that do not have an existing cache file are loaded from database and written to cache. After this models are dropped from the memory.

Scheduling applies to the following model operations: Save (not Save As), Replace, Rename, and Move (to another folder). However, in the case a new published model is created, models in Portal are updated at the moment the new model is saved. This setting can be used for example to schedule model update operations to occur outside the peak hours in environments with large models.

PortalUpdateScheduleStartDate

Datetime (dd.MM.yyyy hh:mm:ss)

Defines the initial start time of the updating between QPR BizArchitecture Server and QPR Portal if PortalUpdateMethod = 1. If PortalUpdateScheduleStartDate is not defined, the server start date/time is used.

PortalUpdateScheduleInterval

String (dd:hh:mm)

Defines the interval between the updating of QPR BizArchitecture Server and QPR Portal starting from the time defined in PortalUpdateScheduleStartDate. Only one interval is supported. The correct format for this setting is a colon-separated list of days, hours and minutes. For example, if PortalUpdateScheduleStartDate = 12.12.2008 01:30:00 and PortalUpdateScheduleInterval = 01:00:00, the first update takes place on 12.12.2008 01:30 and subsequent updates are done every day at 01:30.

With different options this setting either overrides or utilizes the ModelsInMemory and LoadModelsToMemory keys. The options are as follows: 0 = No models are read into memory at startup. 1 = All models are read into memory at startup. 2 = Models listed in the ModelsInMemory key are read into memory at startup, 3= Models listed in the LoadModelsToMemory key are read into memory, 4 = Models listed in ModelsInMemory AND LoadModelsToMemory key are read into memory at startup. For standalone installation the default value is 1, but for other installations the default value is 4.

Defines whether custom attribute types are displayed in the diagram as a horizontal attribute list. This setting is useful for flow charts created in QPR 7.5 since the visualization mode has changed to vertical after that. 1 = show horizontal attribute list, 0 = show vertical attribute list (default). Note that in contrast to the similarly named key in [PGC Settings] section, this is a global key affecting all users of the corresponding instance of QPR Web Application Server, and therefore this should reside in QPR_Servers.ini located in the C:\ProgramData\QPR Software\QPR 2023\2023.1\Servers\Settings\<possible instance folder> folder.
