Guidelines for using third party external processes

For folder-based profiles, the third party software must support input and output via hot folders.

In addition to PDFs, External Process nodes accommodate all supported file types, except RDOs.

The third party application must accept and send out the same types of files. For example, PDF in must result in PDF out. The function of the third party software cannot be to convert PDF to JPEG.

The third party application must accept and send out the same file name. For example, table.PDF in must result in table.PDF out. The function of the third party software cannot be to convert table.PDF to door.PDF.

Users must supply a user name and password when a remote location is selected during setup.

The folder-based, input, output, and error locations must reside on the same remote machine or the same local machine.

The CLI profile Script full path, Working directory, and Output location (if used) must reside on the same remote machine or on the same local machine.
