Configure a Validation activity
Use the following procedure to configure a Validation activity.
-
Add an activity to the map.
By default, the Configuration tab is open in the properties panel of the activity.
- Change the default Name of the activity to something meaningful.
- On the Type list, select .
-
Configure the following settings.
Capture Input document/folder
Document or Folder variable that serves as an input for the Validation activity.
-
When creating this activity, you can provide only one document or folder variable as an input to the activity. See Create a document variable and Create a folder variable.
-
On the Inputs/outputs tab, you can provide any number of additional input and output variables of any type, except Document or Folder variables. However, you can add fields from a Document or Folder variable. See Configure the input and output variables for an activity.
-
The output parameter will only be set on completing an activity; on canceling the activity, the output parameter is lost.
Allow validation to complete with invalid fields
By default, the validation of documents with invalid fields is not completed and an error is thrown at runtime.
If selected, allows the validation of a document with invalid fields to be complete at runtime. However, you can reject the document that has invalid fields and complete the activity.
Validation operator settings Classification
Allow operator to classify documents: Allows scan operator to classify documents. By default, the classification group is inherited from the process. To select a classification group specific to this activity and not inherit from the process, do the following:
-
Clear Inherit classification group from process.
-
On the Classification group list, select a classification group or dynamically set the classification group using a String variable (process or server). The variable holds the GUID of a classification group. You can copy the GUID from the classification group. See General properties of a classification group.
If you do not select a particular classification group for the activity or inherit one from the process, or if you select to inherit the classification group from the process and have not associated a classification group at the process level, the system displays the following message, "You can save the process but cannot release it until the configuration is complete."Page rendition
By default, the page renditions are inherited from the system and the renditions for the activity become unavailable. To display a different image as the default page rendition, do the following:
-
Clear Inherit settings from system.
-
On the Default displaying image list, select a different image to display as the default image.
Imported documents
By default, the activity inherits the settings from the process for the imported documents. To specify settings specific to this activity and not inherit from process, clear Inherit settings from process. The following two settings are available.
- Merge / Split / Delete: If selected, enables merging or splitting documents and deleting pages.
- Rotate / Reorder: If selected, enables rotating images and reordering pages.
To keep the original copy of the documents that are imported but not scanned, keep these options clear.MFP ready
