Processing Monthly Donors

Options
Hi,


Does anyone know the threshold of the number of monthly donors that you can process in RE at one time in the hosted enviroment(between 40000-60000 monthly donors).  In the past i have tried with less then 5000 and have sometime had issues with time outs.  But with a number in the thousands i am not sure how this woudl work.  If anyone has ideas or has process a very large number of payments in RE please do let me know.


thanks

    Hi Divyesh,


    What exactly do you mean when you say "processing"?

  • Hi Joy


    When i say processing actually running the payment for the gift through EFT.  Charging the cc or debit info in RE.

  • Well in that case, we have to split ours into
    weekly batches as RE does tend to hang and then crash out quite a
    lot when handling big transmission files.

    Hi Joy,


    that is what i suspected. I just wanted to see what others do with a high number of gifts.  What is the most you have tried at once to process cc or direct debits.


    regards

    Divyesh

  • Hi Divyesh,

     

    The maximum I have successfully processed at
    one time is around 8,000 transactions.  Anything over 10,000
    seems to tip it over the edge!

    It can be very frustrating!
