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.
Common Errors
Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks because they are
related more to the system than to PlanetPress itself. Some examples would be W3813, W3830, W3991, W4005. These cor-
respond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission errors on folders or files, etc.
Restrictions
l Each Laserfiche repository output task uses a connection to Laserfiche. You can use as many Laserfiche repository out-
put tasks at the same time as your Laserfiche license allows. If you see the error message ‘The session number was
exceeded’ in the PlanetPress Suite Service Console, it means you have exceeded your allowed number of connections.
l To use the “Use PlanetPress PDF/A archives”option,make sureto:
l Check the field as Multiple, select CHAR type and enter the width fields in Laserfiche administration console as
long as your PlanetPress fields.
l Insert a folder path to your PDI source files in the PlanetPress Image archive folder.
l If a field is checked as Required in Laserfiche administration console, fill the field value.
l If you want to assign an Informational Tag, do not check the Security tag option in the Laserfiche administration
console.
l If the output repository folder does not have access rights to read and create documents, the task will not be able to
export documents to the selected Laserfiche folder.
l If you intend to use PDI for number type, your decimal separator in both your Regional and Language Options and in
PlanetPress Index (PDI) numbers should be a dot (".").
l The Laserfiche output task will only work if an activated PlanetPress Imaging is found, either locally or on
the network.
LaserFiche Repository Output Task - Configure Templates
A Laserfiche template consists of a collection of template fields. Template information can include words, numbers, dates and
times, Laserfiche variables as well as any available PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools variables. Template information makes
documents easier to find.
Configure Template
l Template: Select from a list of templates imported from Laserfiche.
l Fields: Set to configure the fields on a by-template basis. The available fields depend on the selected template. See
below for available data types for Laserfiche template fields.
l The button on the right side of each field allows to select Laserfiche variables, or to choose “Use PlanetPress
Index file (PDI)”.
l Use PlanetPress Index file (PDI):This optionmeans that the correspondingfield (Document) is
multiple and the field type is: CHAR, Integer, Long Integer or Number on the Laserfiche server. If this
field name is also found in a PlanetPress Suite index file (.pdi), selecting “Use PlanetPress Index file
(PDI)”will get all the values from the PDI to be pushed into Laserfiche as indexes for the published file.
l If “Use PlanetPress Index file (PDI)” is disabled, the corresponding field is not configured to be multiple
on the Laserfiche server. Users should check the multiple option on the Laserfiche server in order to use
the PlanetPress index fields.
l Alternatively, right-clicking inside the field allows to selecta PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools variable. Note:
The most important property of a template field is the type of data that it will contain. For example, if the field
