845.0. "RECOUNT Function" by KETJE::CAPPELLEMANS (The Dark side of the \FORCE) Wed Jun 10 1992 12:58

Hello,


Where can I found explanation about the RECOUNT function, 
does it take a parameter (as USERNAME as I presume), how is the
count performed, does it includes all drawers, all shared documents.

Many thanks

    RECOUNT is used in the product in only one place - the CDQ housekeeping
    procedure, in order to determine whether users are within their
    document quota.
    
    In V2.4 it did not take a parameter. Now in V3.0 it takes a parameter
    which is the user to have the count done, but this defaults to the
    current user. To be able to perform RECOUNT for another user you need
    access to all their drawers, which for practical purpose means you need
    to be a privileged user.
    
    It will include all the user's drawers, and within each drawer it will
    count every DOCDB record in the count with the exception of:
    
    a) Documents in the wastebasket
    
    b) Documents in the pending archive folder
    
    c) Documents in the inbox
    
    d) Archived documents
    
    On completion RECOUNT will update the DOCCOUNT field in the profile
    record.
    
    Cheers

    I am wondering why RECOUNT doesn't count the documents in those folders?

    People who have their document quota exceeded can jump out of the Document
    Quota Exceeded Menu by
    1) Delete enough documents
    2) Do the RECOUNT

    And then bypass further document quota check by
    1) Refile all documents in the WASTEBASKET to INBOX

    I found it hard to enforce document quota with such a feature.

    Any hints?

    Hi,
    
    I agree with you, however as far as I am aware there has no official
    request to have this functionality changed.
    
    Happy New Year
