Send to Folder
Send to Folder output tasks send the files they receive to a local folder. They perform the same
function as Send to Folder action tasks, with the only difference being that in this case, PReS
Workflow will not wait for the task to be completed before going on to the next task in the
configuration.
The following describes the properties specific to Send to Folder output tasks. For information
on those properties shared by various types of tasks, such as Other and On error properties,
refer toConfigurations, Processes and Tasks.
Input
Any data file.
Processing
The file is saved in the location specified, as the file name specified.
Properties
General tab
l
Folder: Enter the path of the folder to which the files are to be saved.
l
File name: Enter the name of the output files generated by this task. To prevent each new
file from overwriting the previous one, you should use variable names. As with any
variable property box, you can use any combination of text, variables and data selections.
l
Concatenate files: If this option is selected, when PReS Workflow tries to save the job
file under an existing name, it appends the content of the new job file to that of the existing
file, instead of overwriting it.
l In the case of a PDF, this will act like the "Merge PDF Files" on page228 input task,
merging the PDF logically.
