Defining a Processing Rule Based on a Saved Document
You can have Trading Networks create a processing rule based on a document that you saved in the Trading Networks database. You can edit the rule and add extended criteria. When Trading Networks creates the processing rule, it sets the criteria, pre-processing actions, and actions as described in the following table:
Setting | Description |
Criteria |  Sender criterion: Set to the sender identified within a document or unknown. Receiver criterion: Set to the receiver identified within a document or unknown. Document type criterion: Set to the document type for the document or unknown. User status criterion: Set to the value of the user status that is associated with the document, if any. |
Pre-Processing | Verify digital signature: Always verify the document’s digital signature. Validate structure: Always validate the document’s structure. Check for duplicate document: Use the action in the document type. Save document to database: Always save the document content, attributes, and activity log. |
Action | Trading Networks sets the processing action to ignore the document (that is, to not perform any processing actions on the document). |
