Early archiving configuration indicates to the system which part of the filename denotes the unique ID of the image as allocated by the image archive.

An ID must be embedded within the image filename and separated by an underscore. The part of the filename that represents the ID is specified in the Organization ID parameter in the Settings > Invoice Processing > Global Settings > Import Settings, with the work COMPONENT followed by a number that indicates the ID position in the filename.

For example, processing an image using the following components has an ID embedded in the filename as follows.

12345_2_20120901.tif

The first component of the filename is 12345, the second component and ID is 2, and the third component is 20120901. The Organization ID parameter in the in the Settings > Invoice Processing > Global settings > Import Settings is configured as follows.

COMPONENT2

The final step to complete the configuration is to set up the linking process between the document in the archive, and the posted/parked document in SAP.
