Search folder and rename the newly created document

asked on September 12, 2017

Hi guys, i am trying to rename a new created entry/document by checking or comparing the previous/old document's name in a particular folder.Example:

1.Folder A in the LF repository.

2.new document created will route into Folder A, then workflow check the Folder A, if nothing then save the new document as "invoice-1".

3.If check there is document inside already, track the "1" with the previous entry name, and increase it by 1 ,it should become "invoice-2" .or if the previous one "invoice-3" then the new document name would be "invoice-4".

 

can it be done with the workflow designer?

 

thanks and appreciate.

The following outline is a brief idea of how to start what you are asking for.  Pieces will need to be altered based on what the rest of your workflow is.

Do you know ahead of time which folder it will be moved to?  Or is the folder path determined by tokens/metadata?  Is the actual name of the document going to be Invoice-1 (-2, -3, etc)?
