You can dynamically change the execution of an automation template for files that are dropped in the hot folder. You need a parameter file that can overwrite certain settings of an automation template.
Create a parameter file in PRISMAprepare Hotfolders.
See the help file of PRISMAprepare Hotfolders for the subset of settings that you can change for an automation template.
The parameter file must have the same name as the document. The parameter file must use the extension "mrparam".
First, drop the parameter file in the input folder of the hot folder. Only then, drop the document in the input folder.
When the hot folder accepts the file, the automation templates assigned to the hot folder are executed. The parameter file will only contain a subset of possible settings for the automation templates. However, settings that are available in the file will overwrite the concerning settings in the automation templates. So, the parameter file dynamically changes the execution of the automation templates for the file dropped in the hot folder.
