Archive hierarchy by searching for part of an existing archive folder name

Post by RichardStemp »

Hello All,

We have files arriving in Switch named [URN001].pdf, [URN002].pdf, etc. that need to be archived in to folders that have already been created, named [CustomerNameX]_[URN001], [CustomerNameY]_[URN002], etc.

Can the archiving be done based on searching for part of an archive folder name? If so, how?

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Yes…maybe. If one job has some metadata including client's name then you could set a hierarchy path with variables with [client name]_[substring of the job name].

If you can't get the client's name from the job but the "key" ([URN002]) is truly unique per customer, I think you might need to sort jobs into as many connections that you have clients. The "key" being used for adressing the jobs into their appropriate folder.

You may possibly use a script if you have the scripting module.
