Dispatch filters
A filter file can have up to 100 user/folder pair entries, with a maximum of 2048 characters
for each entry. Only one AutoRun filter and one IncomingFolders filter can be active
during a current invocation of the application. The active filter(s) can be set with the Set
Active Filter button found in the Editing dialog panel. This button is greyed out when the
currently active filter is displayed.
All filter files must have a file extension of .filter and must be placed in the corresponding
directory shown below for the application to find them and be available for editing:
• The AutoRun filter files must be in:X:\xvtp\dispatch\filters\AutoRun\
• The IncomingFolders filter files must be in: X:\xvtp\dispatch\filters\IncomingFolders\
Where X is the disk drive where VIPO was initially installed.
To edit Dispatch Filter files, click the Edit drop-down menu and select either AutoRun or
IncomingFolders filters.
One default AutoRun filter and one default IncomingFolders filter are provided with this
installation.
A filter entry of all or none for either the “user” or “folder” key will effectively disable all
other options from being selected. To change an all or none setting, either delete or clear
the entry before selecting a new option. In addition, filter entries such as the following are
special filter entries that are allowed as the only single entry in a filter. No other entries
can be found along with it in the same filter file.
user=all
folder=all
or
user=all
folder=none
or
user=all
folder=rule-based
NOTE
Always use the GUI editing facilities to modify filter files; manual edits
may introduce errors in the file that can result in unpredictable behavior.
NOTE
All, none, and rule-based are reserved words used for special filter
entries. Do not use these words to define a user name or an incoming
folder name. If you do, VIPO Dispatch will interpret the reserved words
as special filter entries rather than a user name or an incoming folder
name, and unexpected results will occur.
