Track how often objects are used.

Reference → Solution → DevOps → Track Changes → Recent | Version Control | Cross-Reference | Unused | Use Count

Use Count (Reference): The Use Count page displays how many times each solution object is referenced throughout the configuration. Update the table using the Refresh button to get current usage statistics.

To verify exact usage locations, navigate to Track Changes → Cross-Reference table.

Table Columns

ColumnDescription
IDUnique identifier for each object
ObjectNameName of the object
UseCountNumber of times the object is used

Tip: Double-click any row to navigate to the object's main definition in Designer.

Purpose

Use Count helps identify:

  • Most critical components (high usage)
  • Optimization candidates (frequent access)
  • Potential removal candidates (low/zero usage)
  • Resource allocation priorities

Best Practices

Analysis Guidelines

  • High Count Objects: Consider performance optimization
  • Zero Count Objects: Verify with Cross-Reference before removal
  • Frequent Updates: Monitor impact on dependent objects

Workflow

  1. Click Refresh to update counts
  2. Sort by UseCount to identify patterns
  3. Double-click to investigate specific objects
  4. Use Cross-Reference for detailed usage locations

Limitations

Same as Cross-Reference engine:

  • Only detects direct references
  • String-based references not counted
  • External API usage not tracked
  • Dynamic references missed
