Comments Tab
The Comments tab is common to all tasks. It contains a single text area (Task comments)that lets you
write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the OKbutton,
and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Rename
Rename action tasks are used to rename the job files they receive. Note that you can see how each file is
renamed via the Object Inspector when stepping through a process in Debug mode.
Input
Any job file, in any format.
Processing
The task renames the job file to the desired name, and changes the value of %f and %Fto reflect the new
name.
Output
The input data file is output, with the new name.
Properties
General tab
l
New file name: Enter the job file’s new name. In this variable property box, you may enter static
characters, variables, job information elements, data selections, or any combination of these.
On Error Tab
The On Error tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found in the" Task Properties Dialog" on page666.
By default, any action task, branch, splitter or condition that generates an error will simply be ignored, and
the task just under it (not within a branch)will be given control of the job file without any modification. Any
initial input task that generates an error will stop the process from running as a whole, and output tasks will
not generate output. The On Error tab can be used to overwrite the default behaviors.
