Update Behavior

Perform Validations, Calculations, and Behaviors

Directs Lucity to verify that all edits are valid and that each record is recalculated and updated.

• This function protects the system from invalid data but takes more time to process.
• The system updates related GIS features based on the geodatabase configuration.
• Lucity recommends that users enable this option for all global updates.

If this option is disabled, Lucity pushes the edits directly to the database. The process is faster, but users risk saving invalid data to the field.

• Disabling the validation option facilitates edits to very large numbers of records.
• When disabled, Lucity only updates GIS if the Update GIS option is enabled.

Note: The Validation option can be disabled only if the selection/filterset size falls within a certain record-number range.

Update GIS

Directs the system to update related GIS records even though validations are turned off.

• This option appears only if the Perform Validations option is enabled and the field being edited is linked to the geodatabase.
