+ | === Meta Data Fields === | ||
+ | The meta data fields are defined by their position in a *SCS spool file. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Seq#**: You can change the order of the columns of the meta data table by keying a different sequence number\\ | ||
+ | and pressing < | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | **Page#**: Use keywords *FIRST, *LAST, *ALL, or a specific page number to specify from which page the meta data\\ | ||
+ | value is scraped. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **No. Pgs Indexed**: Key the number of pages from which spool text is scraped and concatenated to form the \\ | ||
+ | meta data for the meta data field. Left blank, 1 page is scraped unless *ALL pages is specified. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Sorting is specified as it is in iDocs: | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | 1 Primary Sort Ascending | ||

+ | 3 Secondary Sort Ascending | ||
+ | 4 Secondary Sort Descending | ||
+ | 5 Third Sort Ascending | ||
+ | 6 Third Sort Descending | ||
+ | 7 Forth Sort Ascending | ||
+ | 8 Forth Sort Descending | ||
+ | 9 Fifth Sort Ascending | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Since this is text against which users will search in a browser, the normal practice | ||
+ | is to define short, one line text fields as meta data. Fields such as customer name, customer number, etc. | ||
+ | You can define text blocks as meta data but the searching dynamics should be considered. | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | Meta data is stored in the meta data file, having the same name as the archive application, | ||

- | ===== Path Variables ===== | + | |
- | + | ||
- | {{pub: | + | |
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | A path is defined to create a directory structure in the archive. The directories | + | |
- | are in the IFS and are real, not virtual. The archived document is placed in the path | + | |
- | created by the path definition. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | At archive time the engine creates a file path using the specified meta data fields, | + | |
- | creates the directories if they are not present, then places the archived document in the | + | |
- | path. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Example: | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Archive application is INVOICES.\\ | + | |
- | *PATH01 is INDEX01, which evaluates to 100100 at archive time for a specific document.\\ | + | |
- | *PATH02 is INDEX02, which evaluates to 2013JANUARY at archive time.\\ | + | |
- | The iView IFS root is /iview6 ( data area DSIVIEWDIR ).\\ | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The archived document ( named 01000010001.pdf ) is placed thus:\\ | + | |
