Resource archives
From version 8.2, PReS Workflow maintains an archive of previous versions of resources, in the fol-
lowing location: %PROGRAMDATA%\Objectif Lune\PReS Workflow 8\PReS Watch\OLCon-
nect\Archive , each in their own folder:
l
datamapper contains archives of the data mapping configurations (.OL-datamapper)
l
jobcreation contains archives of the Job Presets (.OL-jobpreset)
l
outputcreation contains archives of the Output Presets (.OL-outputpreset)
l
template contains archives of the templates (.OL-template)
l
workflow contains archives of Workflow configurations received by the server.
The archives are saved using the template named followed by a timestamp. A maximum of 30 of each
instance of a resource is kept (meaning if you have 10 different templates, a maximum of 300 files will
be present in the archive\template folder). Older archives are deleted automatically as new archives
are created.
Using Connect Resources in tasks
A number of OL Connect tasks (see "OL Connect tasks" on page492) let you select a Connect
resource file to be used with the task. The selection list will appear on one or more of the tabs in the
Task Properties dialog that appears when you add a task to a process (see "Adding tasks" on
page287).
For information about the options in the selection list, see "Selecting a resource file in task properties"
on page292.
You can drag-and-drop a resource on a process to add the appropriate task.
When dropped on a process:
l
A data mapping configuration adds an "Execute Data Mapping" on page522 task. If you agree
to use the first sample file in the data mapping configuration as the process's sample data file, the
process's emulation will be changed accordingly.
l
A Job Creation Preset creates a "Create Job" on page504 task.
l
An Output Creation Preset creates a "Create Output" on page506 task.
When a template is dropped on a process, you can choose whether it adds a "Create Email Content"
on page500 task, a "Create Preview PDF" on page509 task, a "Create Print Content" on page513
task, or a "Create Web Content" on page516 task (as an Action or Output task).
Using attached data files
When sending a Connect data mapping configuration from the Designer to PReS Workflow, all data
files used in the document are automatically sent to PReS Workflow along with the data mapping
