Table Of Contents
l The task CANNOT re-select unselected nodes if the condition is false for those nodes.
l Filter rules cannot be based on the following metadata attributes: SelectedIndexInJob, SelectedIndexInGroup, Select-
edIndexInDocument and SelectedIndex.
Metadata Level Creation
Conditionally create new metadata groups or documents. This task is only functional if metadata already exists for the current
job.
The task enables users to merge data pages into Documents and/or merge Documents into Groups, based on conditions. Unse-
lected Data pages are ignored, but are moved with others Data pages if the action is applied to the current parent node.
Input
Any data file with accompanying metadata.
Processing
The metadata file is split on the selected level.
Output
The original data file is output, along with the modified metadata.
Task Properties
General Tab
l Document: Create a new Document level. Note: Attributes and Fields are deleted for all new Document levels
created as well as existing Groups.
l Group: Create a new Group level. Note: Attributes and Fields are deleted for all new Group levels created.
l Delimiter defines if the Condition parameter is triggering the beginning or the end of a Group or Document. If
the delimiter option is set to None, the action is not performed.
l Rules enable the user to define on which criterions the action must to be performed. The condition must be
TRUE to execute the action. If the condition is not met at least once, the rule is not applied. To set up conditions,
the Rule Interface is displayed, allowing to edit the condition for the given action. See theRule Interface page for
more details.
On Error Tab
The On Error Tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found on Task Properties Dialog.
If storing the message or ID, if they are store in a jobinfo they will be available in any error handling process where errors are
being forwarded. In all cases, if your process continues after the error, the contents of the variables selected in this window
will be available for the rest of your process, or whenever they are overwritten.
Metadata Sequencer
Although the Metadata Sequencer acts as a splitter, the data file itself remains untouched, as neither the data nor the metadata
are actually being split through this task. With each sequence, the entire data file still gets carried from one task to another.
Metadata records are simply selected/unselected, which has the same effect.
Input
Any data file with accompanying metadata.
