Re: EPIM is limited to 33499 tasks?!

logies, is there's any possibility you could forward us your database file, please do that. Sorry, I can`t give away my database file. Too much sensitive information. I have a software for my dental office which uses PostgreSQL, the client is programmed in Delphi (Consys-Dent). After each automatic...

Re: EPIM is limited to 33499 tasks?!

EPIM is much too slow for 30.000 tasks. At least I think this after I have used it with only about <1000 tasks for 2 weeks or so. At the moment I have no time to play around further and no incentive. Because of the usability problems above EPIM 8.65 I cannot upgrade. I could already import emails fr...

Re: EPIM is limited to 33499 tasks?!

No, it did not work. What did work a bit, was to give the user full rights (in user adminstration). Then he could connect to the database successfully. I could then go back to standard rights for this user. But in the new, small database only SYSDBA has kept his email account. All other user account...

Re: EPIM is limited to 33499 tasks?!

I took a copy of active database, where I already had deleted 30000 tasks. I could sync it without a problem to a new database. Syncing with the old, full database did not work, though I had optimized it several times when running into problems. Do you have any database of yourself or another custom...

Re: Write protected, public tasks cannot be checked any more?

I wouldn't call that a well established functionality rather than a design flow, which allowed you to utilize it in a bit unexpected way. Fact is, I would not have bought EPIM if it would have behaved back then as it behaves at the moment. The group functionalities have always been a weak point of ...

Re: Write protected, public tasks cannot be checked any more?

tag-filter-windows.gif The filter window does not offer a checkbox for multiple tags in a row any more, eg. a checkbox for "iw, ml". I can only check each tag individually. That`s not selective enough, because tasks from iw or ml or "iw, ml" or "iw, (other tags)" etc. ...

Re: Write protected, public tasks cannot be checked any more?

On tagging: Because delegaton is weak in EPIM, I`m using tagging for this. Eg.: ml, vl, tf, rh, ls etc for user names. In the past I could tag eg. with "vl, tf, rh" and could filter not only on individual tags, but on combinations of tags. This is no longer possible and a step backward, IM...

Re: Write protected, public tasks cannot be checked any more?

It`s always a bad idea in software development to take well established functionality away (always better: make new functionality optional). Some users will be frustrated with the loss, like me. I can`t recommend EPIM any more to colleagues (dentists). For groups who have many little tasks to check ...

Re: EPIM is limited to 33499 tasks?!

I tested on a copy of my old, big database. The sync-tool crashes with the same error message as EPIM: Dynamic SQL Error SQL error code = -303 arithmetic exception, numeric overflow, or string truncation After the crash, when trying to open the new database with EPIM 8.65, I get an error message, th...

Write protected, public tasks cannot be checked any more?

I`m still on EPIM Pro Business 8.65 because I cannot live with the following problem, which is still present in EPIM 9.2: We are several people using EPIM with public tasks, so that everybody can see, what the other is working on. The owner of the public task has write protected it, so that no one e...

Re: Parent/Children Task Entries

The reason why I didn't switch from outlook to EPIM was and is still that it is not possible to move many tasks from one due date to another in just one step. Of course I`m still missing this feature. Bulk changing of "begin date" and "due date" should be easy to implement. Even...

Re: Making bulk cutting and pasting of tasks faster?

I just have selected 4 tasks and tried to click-drag them to another list, 2 times. But EPIM 8.15 Business crashed, 2 times. Without restarting EPIM I then cut 396 tasks on one list and pasted them to the other which worked without a problem.

Max, I did a film, not perfect (my screen is 1200 pixel high, the video only 1080), but you should see the problem. You can download it here:
