Multi-User Electronic Forms
Multi-User forms and other File Maker Pro files, even if only one user is using the file, causes
increased data traffic on a network which can cause a network slowdown and even a complete
shutdown. As a courtesy to other network users it is recommended that users keep Multi-User
FileMaker Pro files to a minimum.
For more information on printing problems see sections 10 (Printing) and Appendix A (Notes and
Warnings).
6. Multi-User File - A FileMaker Pro file being utilized by several users can cause slow
processing and print times. Also, a user with a slow system in a Multi-User file can cause very
slow times (A Multi-User file operates at the speed of the host machine). The more users
connected to a Multi-User file - the slower the response times and print times. Multi-User files
also increases Network traffic significantly - even if only one user is using the file.
