Details

By specifying an application ID, it will cause the fingerprint service to segregate the fingerprints from this calling application from other applications. This will prevent fingerprints from another application being matched with images from this application. It will also limit the fingerprint matching to the fingerprints within this application only.

Unless there is a specific need to match fingerprints across different applications, then each application that uses the fingerprint service should use its own unique application ID to separate its fingerprints and fingerprint matching from other applications.

Once this action is called, it remains in effect for the life of the current task profile. It is typically called on a batch open event and does not need to be called over and over on each page when FindFingerprint or other fingerprint actions are called. If this action is not called, then the default application name "datacap.ccodb" will be used. To configure the use of an application name, this action must be called immediately before or immediately after SetFingerprintWebServiceURL.

Example

SetFingerprintWebServiceURL("http://'FPSERVERNAME'/fpservice/Service.asmx?WSDL")
SetFingerprintWebServiceApplicationID("1040ez")

This example enables the application service by setting the URL, causing subsequent actions to be handled by the fingerprint service. The action Interapplication configures all of the subsequent operations from this application to be processed using the application ID "1040ez".
