Hold files and release when file count is reached
Posted: Fri Jun 08, 2018 11:51 am
I have a flow to which I send lots of different jobs during the day. The name of every file startes with the order number followed by an underscore.
All jobs are color matched with GMG Color server which means that some files takes longer time to complete than others.
A single job can contain several files and I would like to hold the files until all files for a job has reached a certain stage in the flow.
I set a metadata variable NumberOfFiles=FileCount in the beginning of the flow, so I know how many files where submitted for each job.
How do I set up a Hold job to release only the files whose order number is the same when the number of files with that order number equals NumberOfFiles?
