Document Provider Rules (ttrpi2558m000)

Use this session to define the provider rules.

A document provider rule is the linking pin between the document type and the document provider. For one document provider more document provider rules can exist. Based on an expression linked to the document provider rule the correct rule is selected.

With the (custom) document provider you declare the available data fields when a document is created. These data fields can be mapped to document type variables in a (custom) document provider rule.

Double-click on a document provider rule to open the Document Provider Rule (ttrpi2558m100) session.

Field Information

Document Provider

The provider the rule belongs to.

When a new document provider rule is created the default rule description is the description of the document provider.

Sequence

A unique identification of the document provider rule. A document provider can have multiple rules; one of rules will be applied during the document preparation phase.

Is Default

If this check box is selected, the document provider rule is the default provider. The default is selected if none of the other document provider rules satisfy the conditions in their conditional expression.

Condition Expression
