This setting allows you to limit the Document Types for which Epic should be notified of new documents.
When one or more Document Types are specified for the AllowLinkTypes setting, the Scan Acquisition Server or Front Office Scanning integration will send Epic only information about documents scanned into the specified Document Types.
Specify the Document Types using the following format:
<AllowLinkTypes>DocType 1,DocType 2,DocType 3</AllowLinkTypes>
In this example, the Scan Acquisition Server or Front Office Scanning integration will send Epic only information about documents scanned into Document Types named DocType 1, DocType 2, or DocType 3.They will not send Epic information about documents scanned into any other Document Type.
The AllowLinkTypes setting is an alternative to the PreventLinkTypes setting. There is no need to configure both settings. However, if a Document Type is specified for both AllowLinkTypes and PreventLinkTypes, the AllowLinkTypes setting takes precedence.
