- Outbound tab Settings:
The Outbound tab specifies the format for Lab 50 to use when exporting images for processing through ColorFlow.- Require operator interaction: If this option is checked, orders will not be sent through for ColorFlow processing until a lab operator manually clicks the SEND button. Please see the screenshot to the right captioned "Orders Queued for ColorFlow Processing" as an example of the on-screen notification.
- Copy photos to folder: If this option is checked, you'll need to enter the folder path to use for saving a copy of the order photos. You may use a local folder, mapped network drive, or network path as long as the user account has read/write access to the necessary folder. If the location for storage is on a networked computer, Lucidiom Support recommends using the UNC path to access the location to minimize connection issues. Example: \\labserver\StandardPrints\
- Create order subfolders: To create individual order folders within your destination folder, check this box.
- Override order folder suffix: To change the order folder suffix, check this box and enter the preferred suffix.
- Mask order folder (with .tmp) until complete: Enabling this option will temporarily rename the order folder to xxxxxxx.order.tmp, where xxxxxxx is the order number, until all processing through ColorFlow is complete.
- Create job file : To send a file containing the order number and a list of all photos included in the order, check this box.
- File format: The job file may be formatted as XML or plain Text. Select the radio button that corresponds with your preferred formatting.
- File location: The job file may be output to the standard Photos folder within your Lab 50 configuration, or to another folder by selecting Other and entering a location. Lucidiom Support recommends that if you are including a job file that it is output to the same location as your photos folder specified under the "Copy photos to folder" location.
- Filename: The name to use for the job file. Macros that may be entered and substituted at runtime include %ORDER% to use the order number or %TIMESTAMP% to include the date and time.
