Repositories
Repository objects hold job and document data that you want to store so you can retrieve
it later. When you retrieve the job or document information, you can view the job,
submit it again, or review detailed information about the job or document and its
processing history. You can create multiple repositories, each with a unique retention
period.
When you create a repository object, you can specify:
- The retention period for the repository. Objects older than the retention period are deleted by the system.
- The path to the file system or directory for the repository folder. This file system or directory can reside on the local machine or on a mounted drive anywhere on your network.
- A repository location. This value can be used to control who can retrieve files from the repository.
RICOH ProcessDirector supplies a sample repository that you can use to experiment with storing and retrieving jobs and documents.
