Article summary

Opt-In Process

High-volume batch processing is now available. If you want to enable the feature, please contact Blackthorn Support. There is no additional cost.

Support will guide you through testing in a sandbox before determining the final value for the batch size setting. The value is based on the specific customizations in your org.

High-volume batch processing enables the scalability of our batch processes. The new logic queries high volumes of Transactions, splits the results, and invokes concurrent batches. Previously, the batch processes were limited to one record at a time to ensure that Payments was compliant with Salesforce's limits.

The new protected custom setting, Auto-Charge Batch Size (Auto_Charge_Batch_Size__c), controls the batch size of the scheduled job. The default setting is 1. Currently, the maximum supported value is 75.

About the Schedule High Volume Transaction Job Button

The Schedule High Volume Transaction Job button is located on the Blackthorn | Payments Admin page’s Scheduled Job tab.

  • The Schedule High Volume Transaction Job button is available when the auto charge batch size exceeds 1.
  • The Schedule Billing Jobs button is visible when Stripe Billing is enabled through a future date.
  • The Schedule High Volume Transaction Job button is hidden when the batch size resets to 1.
  • When the Schedule High Volume Transaction Job button is clicked, the Blackthorn | Payments Daily Captures - High Volume scheduled job will replace the Blackthorn | Payments Daily Captures job and will run at midnight.
