Search Fields Fail With Repeating Attributes

When repeating attributes containing multiple values are used for search fields, documents

are not versioned properly at export time. Instead, duplicate documents are created without

generating an error. (SPR00009793)

Workaround: With search fields, use single values for repeating attributes.

Exporting to a Workflow Requires Input Port 0

Exported documents can be sent to a Documentum workflow, as long as the initial step of the

workflow accepts documents on input port 0. If this is not the case, the following error occurs,

export fails, and the batch is sent to the Kofax Capture Quality Control module.

The package <package name> is not in the specified input port, Input: <port

number>.; ERRORCODE: 100; NEXT: null] Please update your workflow so the

initial step is set to input port 0, remove the released documents from 4i,

and run the batch again.

Workaround: To resolve the problem, redefine the first step in the workflow so that it uses

input port 0.

Open your batch in the Quality Control module, clear the rejected status, and then process the

batch.

Refer to the documentation that came with your Documentum product for details about

defining workflows.

Latest Version Option

If the latest version of the exported document is not the current version, and you select the

“Latest version” option on the Document Settings tab, the export connector automatically

creates a new version of the exported document corresponding to the option marked

“Current version” in Documentum. (SPR00009962)

Dynamically Select Object Type

The “Dynamically select object type at release using the following Ascent Value” check box

on the Document Settings tab is used to dynamically assign an object type to your exported

documents at export time. Note that if the object type cannot be matched or resolves to a

NULL value at export time, the Export Setup window will receive an error message and the

document is not exported. The error message is written to the error log.

In addition, if you attempt to delete a linked index field, the login prompt is displayed so

you can log in and validate the data in the export connector. Once logged in, notice that the

assigned object types have been unlinked. If you click Cancel, the export connector prompts

you to save the data. If you click “No,” the next time you set up the export connector, the

“Dynamically select object type at release using the following Ascent Value” check box is not
