Configure file folder as input source for XML files

If XML invoices are stored in a folder, ReadSoft Collector can be configured to process them directly from there.

  1. Open ReadSoft Collector General settings dialog box.
  2. Click the Input tab.
  3. Click .
  4. In the dialog box that is displayed, select XML Files in the Type list.
  5. In the Display name box, type a name that helps you remember what the input source configuration is used for. When the input source configuration is complete, what you enter here is displayed in the Display name column of the Input dialog box.
  6. Add any additional relevant information in the Description box.
  7. Click Next.
  8. Use the browse button to select the folder that will be used as the source directory for XML invoice files. Paths to the folders for identified invoices and invoices with errors are added automatically as sub-folders to the source directory setting. Alternatively, you can manually type in the folder information or use the browse buttons individually.
  9. Click Finish.

    • If non-XML files are found in the folder, they will be ignored.

    • If you want to use user-defined values in a job in which XML files are retrieved from a file folder, select Other in the Custom values tab of the ReadSoft Collector job.
