Create an export folder for jobs

The operator can manually export one or more jobs of an order from the [Order processing]. It is also possible to automatically export jobs from the [Order processing] via export folders. You must create an export query. If the query is valid for a job, then that job is exported.

1. Click [System] - [Services settings] - [Export service] - [Export folders for jobs].

2. Click button [New export folder].

3. Define the [Export folder path].

   You can create a dynamic path using job items and fixed text. You can drag and drop the job items into the “Export folder path”. The backslashes are added automatically. For example, C:\[IntakeOperator]\[JobNumber]

   • For each job ticket item in the path, a folder or subfolder is created during export.

   This archive solution is job based, therefore you can use only the job items. This option is not available for the export of orders.

   You can create export folders on the server of PRISMAdirect, or on a network share that is accessible to the user running the PRISMAdirect services.

4. Define the export query.

   If the query is valid for a job, then that job is exported. The export query is an SQL query which is uses job items. You have to define a query per export folder. Define a query

   By default, the complete job is exported as a ZIP file. The ZIP file contains:

   • The files of the job

   • The job ticket

   • The conversion file, if available

   • The redistill file, if available

   • The merged document, if available

5. Enable or disable option [Export current PDF file only].

   When you enable this option, only the merged document of the job is exported as PDF file. The ZIP file described in the previous step is not exported.

6. [Export current PDF and file containing all ticket items] 

   Enable this option to export the following files:

   • The merged document of the job is exported as PDF file.

   • An XML file containing all job items and order items. Note that each job always contains all job items even if these are not visible in the ticket. All job items are available in this XML file. The file also contains the job name.

7. Click [Save].

   The export folder is configured and added to the list of export folders.
