Audit File Custom Settings - Deprecated Fall 2021

The Async Record Limit field in the XML settings custom setting define the maximum number of records processed in each asynchronous batch when XML audit files are generated and sent to Analytics.

The default value is set to 10,000. The asynchronous processes used to generate the XML audit files are governed by your Salesforce instance. If Salesforce limits are encountered and errors occur, reduce the value in this custom setting.
