General Tab
l Group:Sorts the metadata by group.
l Document:Sorts the metadata by document.
l Data page:Sorts the metadata by data page.
For each parameter, three columns are available:Sort By, Then by, Then by (again). This lets
you sort your document level in three different orders sequentially. Sorts are always done from
left to right, top to bottom, giving you a total of 9 sorting possibilities.
When you click on either of the sort boxes, a small popup displays the following options:
l Sort by:The drop down displays a list of available fields and attributes in that level,
letting you select on which to sort. The field or attributes must be present for every
instance of the level you are searching on, or the task raises an error.
l
Order:Choose Ascending (orders like a,b,c, or 1,2,3) or Descending (orders like 3,2,1
or c,b,a) order. If the Numeric sorting option is not checked, numbers are sorted like
this:"1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9".
l Numeric Sorting:Check to sort numerically instead of alphabetically (only supports
whole numbers. Currency with thousands separator and decimal points will not work). If
any non-numeric value is found in the field or attribute, in any instance of the level, the
task raises an error.
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.
