I going to use the new exciting External Content Type feature to display a list of data from an external LOB system. The list is potentially long, so paging with filtering at the LOB system side is preferable. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee556392(office.14).aspx implies that BCS might have some provisions for paging (PageNumber filter). But the documentation is yet incomplete. Here is a sample how to do paging for IdEnumerator method for Search Crawler, but has no samples to paging with SPView. Anyone has some experience with BCS paging?


  • How does BCS get to know the total number of items in the list?
  • How does BCS pass paging parameters to the LOB system?
  • How to make work SPView with BCS server-side paging and sorting?
