the work of any previous Metadata Filter or Metadata Sequencer, so be careful when
using this option.
On Error Tab
For a description of the options on the On Error tab see "Using the On Error tab" on page92.
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.
Special Considerations
l The task CANNOT re-select unselected nodes if the condition is false for those nodes.
l Filter rules cannot be based on the following metadata attributes: SelectedIndexInJob,
SelectedIndexInGroup, SelectedIndexInDocument and SelectedIndex.
Metadata Level Creation
The Metadata Level Creation task conditionally creates new Metadata groups or documents.
This task is only functional if Metadata already exists for the current job.
For more information about Metadata see "Metadata" on page69.
The task enables users to merge data pages into Documents and/or merge Documents into
Groups, based on conditions. Unselected Data pages are ignored, but are moved with other
Data pages if the action is applied to the current parent node.
Using the wildcard parameter "?"
Since all metadata data pages, and possibly all physical data pages, are treated by the task at
run-time in order to evaluate the condition at each level, it is necessary to dynamically define
metadata as well as data selections to check all occurrences instead of a fixed one.
This is done using the wildcard parameter "?". When a question mark is used as a parameter in
a data or metadata function, the function operates on all nodes (not just one) of a given level.
