The procedure to create a new Documotive EDM integration service is as follows:
- Navigate to Quick Menu > System > Configuration > Integration Management. The Integration Management window is displayed.
- Click on New Integration. All fields are activated ready for data entry
1.
- Using the Company drop-down field, multi-select all companies applicable to this EDM integration service, or choose the All option, as required
1.
- Enter a name for the EDM integration service into the Name of Integration field provided
2.
- Using the Type of Integration drop-down field, select the specific parameter value of EDM System; set the adjacent Integration field to Documotive.
- Use the Description field to add contextual information in support of the EDM integration service.
- Enter the unique web service address for the locally installed EDM system into the Reference field provided.
- Where the stored content is to be retrieved from All repositories configured within the EDM system, activate the tick box provided
3.
- Alternatively, enter a Repository name into the field provided i.e. a named folder within the repository hierarchy from where stored content will be retrieved.
- Choose an Effective from date for this EDM integration service i.e. the date on which it came into effect.
- Choose an Effective to date if the EDM integration service is to be reviewed on a specific date or to capture a change of circumstances; a blank field means the service will be continually valid.
- Use the Active tick box provided to determine the operational status of the EDM integration service.
- Click on Save. The new EDM integration service appears in the alphabetical list, underneath the associated categorisation headings.
Tip
1 Where only a small number of parameter values are not required, activate the All tick box first and then deselect individual items from the full list, as appropriate; the All tick box will be automatically removed once an item is deselected.
Note
1 Upon first access, all fields are automatically activated ready for data entry; hence the New Integration button is inactive.
2 System validation rules ensure that the name entered for each EDM integration service is unique for the effective period.
3 This is the default setting for a Documotive integration service; hence the option must be deactivated before a sub-folder can be specified.
