BIC organizes documents into batches to simplify and control the processing of large numbers of documents.
The batch folder structure in the file system contains the following information.
- Batch state files
- A text file that contains the state of a batch and the minimum state of any of its folders. The state of the folders in turn represents the minimum state of any of its documents.
- Batch control files
- A text file that contains all information about the batch, such as its state, folders, and documents as well as the project used for processing.
- Fast info file
- A text file that contains a copy of the main information from the database about the batch.
- Lock file
- Runtime Server, Designer and Verifier create a LOC file when processing a batch. No other instance or application can process a locked batch. If an application terminates abnormally, an instance unlocks the batch.
- Subdirectories
- The subdirectory name matches the batch ID and contains the workdoc (WDC) files, the documents and the document attachments.
Note: BIC stores batch folders and their related project folders together in the file system. For
