Using Wildcards as Routing Criteria

You can use a single asterisk character (*), known as a wildcard, for the Sender, Receiver, and Message Type values in a routing notification. A wildcard matches any value that may be submitted with an incoming document. You can:

Use a wildcard for the Sender parameter to serve as a “catch all” routing notification for a specific company. For example, suppose that you want to execute a particular routing notification for all documents from XYZ Company. You do not necessarily want to define routing rules for each message type that might be sent from XYZ Company, so you use the wildcard character (*) for the Message Type.

Use a wildcard for all parameters (Sender, Receiver, and Message Type) to serve as a “last resort” routing rule. This routing rule will be executed when no other routing rules match the incoming document.
