Update Channel Statistics

After each update to a Channel, be it modifying the Channel itself or updating records for the channel, the Channel Statistics must be updated.

In order to update a Channel’s statistics, the Channel must first be configured with a Saved Set and an Export Template. Instructions on configuring a channel are in the EnterWorks 10 Administration Guide.
