Maximum Error Count

Maximum error count

When you validate a report, ECI will report any errors to you so you can correct them and transmit the file successfully.

In cases where an error is repeated throughout a file, the error message report can be too large to open. For this reason, ECI has a setting called the Maximum error count at which validation stops and you are asked to make a decision about how you would like to proceed.

The default value is 50 however you can change this to any value that suits you.

Example

Continue	Allows you to continue validating the file. You should be aware that your computer and ECI’s performance may be affected if there are a large number of errors in the file being validated. Visit ECI FAQs for instructions on how to allocate more memory to ECI
Cancel	Stops the validation process
