DAF Archive

You use this regular process step to create an Archive to DAF (Document Archive Foundation) based on the Basic Data and xml input values. In a process flow, you can have two DAF Archive process steps. The first DAF Archive process contains initial reference data and the second DAF Archive process contains the updates.

When you create the second DAF Archive process step to contain archive updates only, select Update only. Updates are limited to attribute values. To update the manifest values, use XML Transform process step.

  • For the attribute value, the manifest key is preceded by "daf:" {attribute_name}.

  • For sub-entity attributes, the manifest key is: "daf:" {subEntity_Name}_{attribute_name}[instance].

After a DAF Archive process, EC releases the lock on a document file to make it accessible to other applications including EC.
