Configuration

After installing the plugin login as System and go to the Report/Process window, go to the Import CSV Process record and change the classname for "de.bxservice.process.ImportCSVProcess" to run the new class.

After you do that, you can configure the Import CSV Process as usual, in the Import Template window you will see a new field (Asynchronous Commit)

In the cases you want to preserve the normal iDempiere way of doing it don't check this field, if you want the import to run faster check it and run the process.

Improvement

The plugin was tested with several files, the first one a file with 5000 entries, and the behavior of the asynchronous commits was 30% faster.

In the tables below you can see the result after applying a csv file with 103.222 records. The first table shows the behavior in the normal iDempiere way, the second one the behavior after applying the plugin.

IDEMPIERE STANDARD IMPORTER

BX SERVICE IMPORTER

As you can see in the results the second process took 16 minutes 48 seconds less time committing, that means a 22.16% faster than the standard way.
