Define slot and correspondence types

To use a Document Pack Template in B&OM, you need to define slot and correspondence types in the B&OM Repository to represent the Document Pack Template.

  • The main purpose of correspondence types is to associate the slots of the Document Pack Template with slot types in B&OM.
  • The main purpose of a slot type is to determine the paper type, and to define a category of slots required by the communication rules to customize the processing of these slots.

You must define the slot types for the documents of a correspondence type (Document Pack Template) prior to creating the correspondence type itself.
