Question

Routing file to a folder in workflow

Workflow

Updated October 17, 2018

asked on October 17, 2018

I am trying to route a file to an existing folder in the repository.

The folder I am trying to route to is: RAM-99999-John Doe

I want to use the workflow tool "Route Entry to Folder".

I am pulling the RAM and 99999 from the file name using Assign Token Values.

In the "Route To Folder" how would I ignore the John Doe part of the folder name?

Thanks for your help

Hi Robert,

Unless the 'John Doe' part is always the same, and I am guessing its not, you will need to find the folder using your 'RAM' and '99999' tokens.

Using 'Search Repository' with a search string similar to:
{LF:Name="%(FileName)*", Type="F"} & {LF:LOOKIN="LFICHE\Contracts\"}

(replace %(FileName) with your token(s) %(RAMToken)-%(99999Token)* and the folder path of course)

You can then configure the 'Route Entry to Folder' activity using the token returned from the search:
%(SearchRepository_FirstResult_FullPath)
