The two options in this section, Default Directory and Default File Name, point the process format to the import file containing the data to be processed.

Description |
---|---|
Default Directory |
The path to the folder where the import file is located. Click Browse and navigate to the folder containing the import file or enter the path to the folder that contains the import file into the Default Directory field. Note:
The Default Directory path and filename must be 60 characters or fewer. Tip:
OnBase 's ability to access the data files and place them into the configured Disk Group will affect the speed of the process. The process will run faster if the data files are stored locally on the processing workstation. When using FTP with the FTP Download option, the Default Directory is the directory to which the FTP file will be downloaded for processing, and accessed from the path specified in the FTP Download field. If using FTP with the No Download option, the FTP file will be accessed from the Default Directory. If you are using the Default Directory field to access an FTP site through a UNC path (rather than using the FTP Download field), ensure the format of the UNC path is correct. HL7 supports connections to FTP Servers that require a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) as well as connections that do not require a FQDN. The following example demonstrates connecting to an FTP Server that requires a FQDN: \\ftp:\name@domain.net:<password>\\ftpserver\:21\\ftpdirectory\ Where name@domain.net and <password> are replaced with the appropriate login credentials, ftpserver is replaced with the name of the FTP server or IP address, and ftpdirectory is replaced with the name of the FTP directory on that server. Note:
The syntax of the FTP server's URL may vary depending on the FTP server you are connecting to. Tip:
For performance or character length reasons, it is recommended that you replace the server name with its IP address. Try some benchmarks, and if name resolution causes a performance degradation, then make the corresponding change in the OnBase Configuration module, under Disk Groups | Volume Information. Upon selecting Save & Close, the password you entered will be replaced by <pwd> for security purposes. The password will need to be re-entered whenever changes are made to the Default Directory field. |
Default File Name |
Enter the name of the import file or use the Browse button to navigate to it. When the Browse button is used, the Default Directory and Default File Name fields are both populated when a file is selected. The Default File Name can use the ? and * wildcards to specify multiple files. For example, *.* processes all files in the folder specified by the Default Directory field. Tip:
A copy of the Import Index File will be stored in the System Documents Document Type group, SYS Import Index Document Type if the Store Import File check box is selected at the time of processing. Note:
The Default File Name value must be 60 characters or fewer. When connecting to an FTP server, type the server name to which you are connecting into the Default File Name field. For example: ftp:\\[ftpserver] Where ftpserver is replaced with the name of the FTP server or IP address. |
