Configuring drop statuses

Configure drop statuses to identify the statuses that move documents from the current transaction to the next stage of processing.

About this task

Drop statuses define the statuses that move a document out of the current transaction and make it available for processing by a subsequent transaction. Add or remove drop statuses to control when documents transition from the current transaction to the next stage of processing.

Before you configure drop statuses, create a transaction or open an existing transaction. For more information, see Creating transactions and Modifying transactions.

Note: You cannot add pickup statuses or drop statuses to a system transaction. However, you can use an extended status as a pickup or drop status if its base status is included in the transaction's pickup or drop statuses.

Note: If the transaction is derived from an abstract transaction, the drop status filter that is defined in the base transaction determines the available drop statuses.

Procedure

Open a transaction.
Select the Event conditions tab.
Select the Drop statuses tab.
Complete one of the following actions.
- To add drop statuses, click Add statuses, from the Add drop statuses modal select the statuses that allow event processing, and then click Proceed.
- To remove a drop status, select the status and click the Delete icon ().
- To remove multiple drop statuses, select the statuses and click Delete.
Click Save.

Results

The drop statuses are updated for the selected event handler. Documents that reach a configured drop status transition to the next stage of processing.

What to do next
