Assigning a group to a batch for filtering

You can assign one or more groups to each batch to be filtered by defining a custom Job Monitor filter and adding a rule in Datacap Studio. When the groups are assigned to a batch, the batch can be viewed in Job Monitor only by members of the assigned groups.

Procedure

Add a rule in Datacap Studio to assign one or more groups to each batch.
  • You can assign groups immediately when the batch is scanned. Add the rule to a validation task profile for an interactive start batch panel that is based on the scan operator, job type, or other metadata that is defined in the start batch panel.
  • You can assign groups later in the workflow as part of background processing rules that are based on any metadata in the batch.

Your rule must call a custom action to set the custom Job Monitor column named pb_allowed. Set the value to group number for exclusive groups or the sum of additive group values.
