For Zoho services only


I'm currently part of a wider delivery team at Ascent Business Solutions, recognised as a leading Zoho Premium Solutions Partner in the United Kingdom.

Ascent Business Solutions support organisations with everything from targeted technical fixes through to full Zoho CRM implementations and long-term platform adoption. Working as a team rather than a one-person consultancy allows projects to move forward consistently, with access to the right skills at each stage.

The team I manage specialises in API integrations between Zoho and third-party finance and commerce platforms such as Xero, Shopify, WooCommerce, and eBay. Much of our work involves solving integration challenges that fall outside standard documentation, supporting new ideas, new sectors, and evolving business models.

Success is measured through practical outcomes and return on investment, ranging from scaling small operations into high-turnover businesses to delivering rapid gains through online payments, automation, and streamlined digital workflows.

If you are looking for structured Zoho expertise backed by an established consultancy, you can contact Ascent Business Solutions on 0121 392 8140 (UK), email info@ascentbusiness.co.uk, or visit https://www.ascentbusiness.co.uk.
Zoho Deluge: Determine your Statement Execution Limit

Zoho Deluge: Determine your Statement Execution Limit

What?
A very quick article on how to check what the statement execution limit is on the Zoho application you are working in.

Why?
Our use-case is that an application we built in Zoho Creator was hitting statement execution limits and rather than proposing an upgrade or add-on to the subscription plan; we wanted some proof using code.

How?
We're going to use a quick snippet of some code. So create a function in the Zoho App you are checking, or somewhere you can write some Zoho Deluge code.

Note that requesting an increase of the limit or an upgrade to the subscription will likely to have to be asked directly to Zoho rather than using the online subscription plan management section.

Statement Execution Limit is 5000
The following will run resulting in the error "Number of statement execution limit exceed Line:(10)" but it will info out each number to increment:
copyraw
//
	l_Loop = " ".leftpad(5000).replaceAll(" ", ",").toList();
	//
	for each index v_Iteration in l_Loop
	{
		info v_Iteration;
	}
	// yields an incremental count from 0 to 4999
  1.  // 
  2.      l_Loop = " ".leftpad(5000).replaceAll(" ", ",").toList()
  3.      // 
  4.      for each index v_Iteration in l_Loop 
  5.      { 
  6.          info v_Iteration; 
  7.      } 
  8.      // yields an incremental count from 0 to 4999 

Statement Execution Limit is 10000
If the below runs successfully, then the limit is at least 10'000:
copyraw
//
	v_Counter = 0;
	l_Loop = " ".leftpad(9995).replaceAll(" ", ",").toList();
	//
	for each v_Iteration in l_Loop
	{
		v_Counter = v_Counter + 1;
	}
	info "Statement execution limit is 10000";
  1.  // 
  2.      v_Counter = 0
  3.      l_Loop = " ".leftpad(9995).replaceAll(" ", ",").toList()
  4.      // 
  5.      for each v_Iteration in l_Loop 
  6.      { 
  7.          v_Counter = v_Counter + 1
  8.      } 
  9.      info "Statement execution limit is 10000"

Statement Execution Limit is 50000
If the below runs successfully, then the limit is at least 50'000:
copyraw
//
	v_Counter = 0;
	l_Loop = " ".leftpad(49995).replaceAll(" ", ",").toList();
	//
	for each v_Iteration in l_Loop
	{
		v_Counter = v_Counter + 1;
	}
	info "Statement execution limit is 50000";
  1.  // 
  2.      v_Counter = 0
  3.      l_Loop = " ".leftpad(49995).replaceAll(" ", ",").toList()
  4.      // 
  5.      for each v_Iteration in l_Loop 
  6.      { 
  7.          v_Counter = v_Counter + 1
  8.      } 
  9.      info "Statement execution limit is 50000"

Additional Note(s):
  • Observation #1: Method Chaining: Contrary to my previously held belief, method-chaining still counted as separate statements; this is not true as the following counts 3 statements executed prior to the loop:
    copyraw
    //
    	l_LoopInnerInner = " ".leftpad(5000);
    	l_LoopInner = l_LoopInnerInner.replaceAll(" ", ",");
    	l_Loop = l_LoopInner.toList();
    	// 3 actions so far
    	//
    	for each index v_Iteration in l_Loop
    	{
    		info v_Iteration;
    	}
    	// yields an incremental count from 0 to 4997
    1.  // 
    2.      l_LoopInnerInner = " ".leftpad(5000)
    3.      l_LoopInner = l_LoopInnerInner.replaceAll(" ", ",")
    4.      l_Loop = l_LoopInner.toList()
    5.      // 3 actions so far 
    6.      // 
    7.      for each index v_Iteration in l_Loop 
    8.      { 
    9.          info v_Iteration; 
    10.      } 
    11.      // yields an incremental count from 0 to 4997 
    But the following counts as 1 statement prior to the loop:
    copyraw
    //
    	l_Loop = " ".leftpad(5000).replaceAll(" ", ",").toList();
    	// 1 action so far
    	//
    	for each index v_Iteration in l_Loop
    	{
    		info v_Iteration;
    	}
    	// yields an incremental count from 0 to 4999
    1.  // 
    2.      l_Loop = " ".leftpad(5000).replaceAll(" ", ",").toList()
    3.      // 1 action so far 
    4.      // 
    5.      for each index v_Iteration in l_Loop 
    6.      { 
    7.          info v_Iteration; 
    8.      } 
    9.      // yields an incremental count from 0 to 4999 
  • Observation #2: Setting a loop with leftpad limited to 100,000: Our trick of using the leftpad() method to build a list of any number is actually limited to 100000 as you will get an error saying: "Unable to execute function because the whitespaces to be padded cannot be more than 100000".
