Headers file

Specifies the path and file name to the file that lists which values to copy from the Auxiliary input file to the document properties file (DPF). The contents of the header file are appended to the header of the document properties file for the job. Then, the values for the properties named in the Headers file are copied from the Auxiliary input file into the DPF.

You can also select a step resource object as the value for the property instead of providing a path and filename. Using a step resource lets you change the specific file without editing all of the workflows that contain the step that uses the file.

Usage notes:

  • The headers must be properties defined to RICOH ProcessDirector as document properties.
  • Each row of the Headers file must be written on a separate line.

    For example, if the Auxiliary input file has the headers: Document.Name, Document.Account, Document.Level, Document.Region, Document.Zip, Document.AgentThree of the headers and their values are required to process the job. The Header file contains:Document.LevelDocument.RegionDocument.Agent

    These headers are copied into the DPF for the job at the end of the header row.

  • If an entry in the Headers file is not found in the Auxiliary input file when the IdentifyPDFDocuments step runs, the job is placed in error state.
