Tags are an optional method for categorizing documents that can be added to, or removed from a document at any point.
Configure Tags
l Selecting a tag will assign it to the exported documents.
l There are two types of tags: informational tags (icon with an exclamation mark ("!")), and security tags (icon with a
lock).
l All tag properties are the same as in the Laserfiche client console.
l The Comments columns allow the addition of comments to the tag. This column supports the use of any PlanetPress
Suite Workflow Tools variables.
Restrictions

l If you want to assign an Informational tag, do not select the Security tag option in Laserfiche admin console.
Lookup in Microsoft® Excel® Documents
The Lookup in Microsof Excel® Documents action task is used to complement your job file's metadata by retrieving data
from a Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet on your system.The data retrieved is based on existing data in your metadata, and it
will either be added to your metadata or will append or replace your existing metadata if it exists.
Fields on any level (Page, Datapage, Document, Group, Job)can be used, and the result field will be added on the same level
as the lookup field.
This task will automatically "loop" through the metadata and repeat its action for each of your metadata's datapages.
This task should not be placed after a Metadata Sequencer task, otherwise it will run as many times as there are meta-
data sequences, which will result in decreased performance.
Input
Any compatible data file, requires metadata to be present.
