Output
This task outputs the exact same data that was given to it. Its metadata will either be missing
(Delete Metadata), Changed (Load Metadata)or the same (Save Metadata).
Properties
l Chose an action group
l Load metadata file:Loads an external metadata file that was previously saved.
This can be useful in Error processes if you have previously saved the Metadata to
file (ErrorBin outputs do not transfer Metadata).
l Save the current metadata file:Saves the current metadata to a specified location.
Useful as a backup or for use in Error processes.
l Delete the current metadata file:Removes the active metadata from the process.
Useful when using a secondary input task that does not automatically regenerates
metadata. No metadata will be available until another task generates it.
l Metadata Folder:Use Browse to find the location of the folder where to save the files or
enter a path using variables. Not active when the delete action is chosen.
l Metadata Filename: Enter a static or variable name for the metadata file to load. Not
active when the delete action is chosen.
On Error Tab
The On Error tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found in the" Task Properties Dialog"
on page731.
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.
l Send to Process: Check this option to send the job file to an error management process.
l
Error Process drop-down:Enabled only when the Send to Process option is checked.
Lists any process of which the initial input task is the Input Error Bin task.
l Action:In the initial input tasks, this group is disabled and defaults to Stop Process. In
all other tasks where the On Error tab is present, the following options are available:
