Add an option to prevent datareader from loading data into a saturated entity and a second option to stop if creating an member would result in a saturated entity.


PS : If this should be separated options fromi"On Error Stop" since we might want all rejected data logged into .log file and not stop at the 1st one, yet not have a corrupt database.

    Hi @Product Management Team

    I was looking into posts about prevention of entity saturation and came across this idea.
    I see that it's labeled as "Released" in July 2021, but don't recall any functionality similar to this one in Board.

    Can you confirm that this has been developed and added to Board? Where can it be found?

    Thank you,
    Best regards,

    Hi @Sergi Fernández ,

    this has not been released as an option itself, but a DataReader populating an entity which would be "over-saturated" will be stopped and an according message will be written to the logs.

    You can find that here:

    Best,
    Helmut

    It was a great addition when it was implemented and it brought peace of mind on some data model.

    I'm sure that every board developer that had a corrupted data before that can relate ;)
