Wait duration before calling providers on loading of UWL |
This feature helps introduce a delay in getting item data in the UWL table. The user interface displays partial data while waiting.

The longer delay time is especially useful when items have large number of attachments which usually take a longer time to upload.
No delay is introduced if zero seconds is indicated. |
