Use this dialog to build an Archive Variable Directory, within your archive base directory, where you will store archive images. It appears when you select Edit in the Archive Variable Directory Path area of the iNAME Configuration - Paths and Indexes Screen Archive Directory and Filename group box.
The Archive Variable Directory can be a subdirectory under the Archive Base Directory or the variable directory path can simply be added to the Archive Base Directory Path. If it is to be a subdirectory, the first format string must be a Literal String of "\".
The format string you build can be a maximum of 100 characters.
The Archive Variable Directory is required; your iNAME configuration is unusable without it.
The format strings you create are listed here. Click on a format string to select it. Double click on a format string to edit it. The components of the format string are assembled in the order listed. You can control the order with the Add Above, Add Below, and Remove buttons.
Use the Add Above button to add a format string above the currently selected format string.
Use the Add Below button to add a format string below the currently selected format string.
Use the Remove button to remove the currently selected format string.
Use the Edit button to open the dialog for the currently selected format string so that you can edit it.
There are 13 different sources of variable information from the application and from data generated by the application during scanning that you can use to build your variable directory format string. Any number of these can be used in any order desired. When selected, a dialog appears for each where you can control the specific information you want to include in your format string. This includes:
The format string can include data from any field in your application. You can specify the entire field or any portion of the field to be included in the string.
The fields available for this purpose are those that are in the same location in all record formats, are of the same field length, and have the same field name for the documents from which iNAME image archiving is taking clips. If a field does not meet this requirement, it cannot be used. Field names are case sensitive. For example: "NAME" and "name" are unique field names.
The format string can include any literal string. For example, you can specify "\" as the first component of your format string if you are creating an archive subdirectory.
The format string can include all or part of the ScanTools data file name. Optionally, the application user can be presented with a verification prompt question that you can specify.
