# BalanceDistributeByFields

Sends documents to a random child server if they do not contain the specified distribution field in DistributeByFields mode. This option avoids uneven distribution between child servers if many documents are missing distribution fields.

By default, DIH distributes all documents where the field is empty or missing to the same child server.

This parameter also applies to DistributeByDate mode when you set UnknownFieldValueAction to `Distribute`.
