Remove PDF After Page Generation

asked on October 29, 2021

I love the the new DCC functionality for Page Generation however I cannot find in the corresponding new Workflow activity ("Schedule PDF Page Generation") where I can have it delete the original PDF upon completion. And while there is an activity to Attach an electronic document, there is not one to Detach an electronic document. I know this can be done currently via custom script but are there plans to do either/both of these options:

Update "Schedule PDF Page Generation" Workflow activity to include an option to keep or not keep original PDF's, similar to what is in ImportAgent (as seen below)?
Add a new activity (or update existing "Attach Electronic Document") to allow detaching/removal of the electronic document?

If SDK Script works in v11...

Imports System
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Text
Imports Laserfiche.RepositoryAccess

Namespace WorkflowActivity.Scripting.SDKScriptDeleteEdoc
'''<summary>
'''Provides one or more methods that can be run when the workflow scripting activity is performed.
'''</summary>
Public Class ITS_DeleteElectronicFile

'''This method is run when the activity is performed.
'''</summary>
Protected Overrides Sub Execute()
'Write your code here. The BoundEntryInfo property will access the entry, RASession will get the Repository Access session
CType(BoundEntryInfo, DocumentInfo).DeleteEdoc()
End Sub
End Class
End Namespace

Thanks. We are currently using that script to handle this but I am hoping Laserfiche will add it directly into the updated DCC and/or a standard Workflow activity so we don't have to continue to write custom code to perform what should be built-in functionality.
