Aestiva AP Automation

Footprint

At A Glance

The footprint of Aestiva AP Automation (the hard disk space used) consists of the disk space used for the following: the Array engine, application files, system cache files (files used during program execution), and your database records.

Aestiva's binary engine plus application files take up about 50 Megabytes. The amount of space occupied by Aestiva's system caching files depends on user activity, which depends on the number of POs and invoice forms in your system. Records are typically under 100 K each.

In general, hard disk space usage is related to the number and size of the documents/attachments stored. A chart showing recommended hard disk space availability is shown below. Hard disk space usage will vary.

Space for Attached Files and Images

If you will be attaching files or images to your asset forms, then allow space for the attachments. In general, when attachments are used, they will demand more space than the application. Plan accordingly.
