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
For a description of the options on the On Error tab see "Using the On Error tab" on page92.
Comments Tab
The Comments tab is common to all tasks. It contains a 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.
Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
Metadata Filter
The Metadata Filter task allows specifying the Level (Group, Document and Datapage) on
which to perform the action and under which condition. At least one level must have the
