This setting performs the same function as PreventEpicLinks, but it applies only to specific Document Types. When one or more Document Types are specified for this setting, the Scan Acquisition Server or Front Office Scanning integration will not send Epic information about documents being scanned into these Document Types. Specify the Document Types using the following format:
<PreventLinkTypes>DocType 1,DocType 2,DocType 3</PreventLinkTypes>
In this example, the Scan Acquisition Server or Front Office Scanning integration will not send Epic information about documents scanned into Document Types named DocType 1, DocType 2, or DocType 3.
The PreventLinkTypes setting is an alternative to the AllowLinkTypes 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.
