CHEMS 2013LOCAL TABLES
CHEMS LOOKUPS
• CHEMS retrieves or ‘looks up’ values during data entry
• Descriptions and default values
• Values needed are dependent upon what you key in
• Extra seconds on a report is tolerable
• Data entry is very speed sensitive
• Look behind the scenes during data entry…

CHEMS LOOKUPS
• Works pretty well most of the time for most users
• Internet is running well
• Application servers are OK
• Oracle database is responding as expected
CHEMS LOOKUPS
• County Best Case Scenario
• Newer, fast PC with enough memory
• Fiber / fast internet connection
• Oracle database and app servers are normally OK
• Data entry person may be fast but not lightning fast
CHEMS LOOKUPS
• When CHEMS is not working at top speed…
• Database issue? It has happen but not typical
• DOT Internet is fiber, down but never overloaded
• Application servers are never saturated (< 10% load)
• Typically a county shared Internet connection slows
• The result are lockups / kicked-out / Windows errors
LOCAL TABLES
• Local copy of lookup data copied from the server
• Descriptions and default values
• Fastest response possible during data entry
• Data needed is already in memory on your PC
• Eliminates most of the architecture
