Excluding DM profile attributes

By default, the DM index fields defined for the currently selected profile display in the DM Profile Attributes section on the Document Settings tab. You can prevent one or more of the DM index fields from appearing on the list.

To do so, you must create a file named ACFusion.ini and store the file in the bin folder for your Kofax application:

  • Kofax Capture server: <Kofax Capture installation folder>\bin

  • Kofax Express: <Kofax Express installation folder>\bin

  • Kofax TotalAgility: \\Program Files (x86)\Kofax\TotalAgility\ExportConnectors\bin

  1. Using any text editor, create a new text file called ACFusion.ini.
  2. Insert a section heading titled [Profile Display Names], which lists the column names to exclude from the display. Columns are derived from the SQL column attributes.
  3. Add the column names.

    DM profile fields for the column names you list do not display on the list of DM Profile Attributes on the Document Settings tab.

  4. Save the file in the bin folder for your Kofax application, as listed above this procedure.
Important When you first log on to export setup, the following warning message appears: "Cannot find the DM attribute "<attribute>" in the profile form "<profile>". The link will be removed." Click OK to acknowledge the removal of the DM index field. A warning message appears for each DM index field that you excluded.

If any required DM index fields are listed in the ACFusion.ini file, a warning message appears at export setup time, and the required fields display in the DM Profile Attributes section. Therefore, you cannot hide required fields. In this way, you can link Kofax Values to all required DM index fields.

Each line listed under [Profile Display Names] specifies one column name to exclude, as follows:

Sequence number=Column name

Where:

Sequence number is a unique incrementing number that identifies the line in the [Profile Display Names] section.

Column name is the name of the DM profile attribute as it is known in the OpenText eDOCS DM repository, to exclude from display.

A sample ACFusion.ini file is shown here. Note that each line under the section heading must conform to the required format.

1=CREATION_DATE
2=CREATION_TIME
3=PROCESS_DATE
Note The list of excluded index fields is checked during export setup; it is not checked during export. All linked index fields are exported. Changes to the list of excluded index fields after a batch class is published have no impact on existing batches.
