Adding a Rule - Mailbox Importer - Foundation 23.1 - Foundation 23.1 - Ready - OnBase - Premier - external - Standard - Premier

After mail accounts are added, you can create rules to associate with the mail accounts. A rule controls the determination of whether an external email message should be imported into OnBase and in what format it should be uploaded.

To create a rule:

From the Configuration module, select Import | Mailbox Importer | Rules. The Rules dialog box is displayed.
Enter a unique name for the rule in the field below the Rules list and click Create.

Note:
You must enter a unique name. The Create button is disabled if you enter a name that was used for a previously configured rule.

The Modify Actions dialog box is displayed.
From the Email Document Type drop-down list, select the Document Type to associate with the body of an email. If None is selected, only associated email attachments are uploaded. The email message is not uploaded.
From the Attachment Default Document Type drop-down list, select the Document Type to associate with email attachments. If None is selected, only the email message is uploaded. Any attachments are not uploaded.
From the Scan Queue drop-down list, select the Scan Queue to associate with the email message and any email attachments.

Note:
The Scan Queue drop-down list is only available if you are licensed with a valid Document Imaging license. See the section on licensing in the Overview chapter of the Mailbox Importer documentation.
From the Rule Name Keyword drop-down list, select the Keyword Type whose value can be set to the unique name of the rule. The value of the selected Keyword Type is set when the corresponding email message is archived.

Note:
If None is entered in the Rule Name Keyword field, no Keyword Types are set to the unique name of the rule during archive. Additionally, if None is entered in the Email Document Type field, the Rule Name Keyword field is disabled.
