Task Breakdown
l The Find Capture Documents task queries the Capture database for documents that
correspond to certain specific conditions. For example, here we would look for all
documents that are either in an "Error" or a "Partial" state, which means they received ink
but are not completed correctly. To do this, the "Content Status" filter and setting it "Equal
to" those states. Two conditions are necessary, and the "Condition is true when" is set to
"all items are met".
l With this list of documents in the metadata, we Branch off. This is done because we need
to build a report that will be sent to an administrator, and only one email should be sent.
l To build the report, inside of the branch we use the Metadata Sequencer to create
one sequence for each document, by splitting at the Document level, by 1
occurrence of the level for each sequence.
l The Capture Condition task then
Capture Web Manager Workflow
This example is both a more involved workflow for Capture, and an interesting implementation
of an HTTP Workflow. Before looking at this example, it would be best to become familiar with
both "PlanetPress Capture Workflow" on page186 and "HTTP Server Workflow" on page176.
The example is too complex to display as images in this guide, so it is rather available for
download. It infers two different files:
l Capture Web Manager Workflow Configuration (PW7)
l Capture Web Manager PlanetPress Design Document (PP7)
Note
This example is compatible with PReS Workflow 7.4 and higher and will not work in older
versions.
Installation
1. Download both resource files
2. Create a folder on your disk called c:\PReS
