How can I configure a File Reception Validation Rule?
By configuring an Input Treatment Strategy, you can govern how incoming files are interpreted, processed and validated before being passed into workflows. These strategies act as reusable input treatment profiles that can be linked to one or more workflows. Here’s how you can configure an Input Treatment Strategy:
- You can create, edit, duplicate, or delete a strategy
- Once defined, a strategy can be attached to a workflow configuration
- Each workflow can have one optional input strategy
- Multiple workflows can share the same strategy or use distinct ones
Configuration options within the strategy (current version):
- Expected Document Type & Data Format
- Defines the type of document (e.g. invoice, credit note) and data format (e.g. JSON, XML, PDF) that the platform should expect
- This configuration is directly used by the platform to trigger early validation logic (see: Document Data Validation)
- Unpacking Required (e.g. ZIP Extraction)
- Allows users to specify if incoming files should be automatically unpacked
- If enabled, the system decompresses the archive and treats each contained file individually
- The unpacking behavior is handled in detail under its own dedicated feature (see: ZIP Compression Management)
