Configuring Associated File Variables in Queues Properties
The following fields in Queues Properties accept Associated File Variables:
- Email tab: Title, Subject line, and Body.
- Fax tab: Cover page name, Subject line , and Body.
- File tab: File title.
The two following examples are provided to help you understand how to use associated file variables in queues properties.
In this example "[month]" in the Subject line inserts the associated file variable value for the name month (i.e. there is an Associated File line of the form "month=july"). The recipient will see subject as "March Statement" or "April Statement", depending on the associated file value.
The File title field in File tab accepts Associated File variables for both folder structure as well as document name in either direct or [name] form. These are examples:
"F:\TCG\Sales\[salesperson]\[customer]\Dr[Invoice].pdf”
where the Associated File contained “salesperson=John-1001”,
“customer=FormTrap Systems” and “invoice=32245” giving this as the file
name:
”F:\TCG\Sales\John-1001\FormTrap
Systems\Dr32245.pdf”
“F:\TCG\Sales\[full path]”
where the Associated File contains “full path=Amy-1002\Widgit
Brokers\Dr32250” giving the result:
”F:\TCG\Sales\Amy-1002\Widgit Brokers\Dr32250”
