Property grid

Determines the order in which the configured profiles are used when a document is received, and what the default static value is if no data is found in the respective header. The mapping order can be different for each document property.

Property column — Displays the Output Manager document property name.

Mapping Order column — Controls the sequence the designated profiles are processed to find a value for that document property. Note the static value by default is the value for that document property in the source’s Document properties tab.

Click in the cell to display a configuration menu. Configure the order in which headers are processed by selecting the appropriate rows and clicking the Up and Down buttons. To enter a default static value, click in the Mapping/Value cell next to Static Value and either type or select the value. This static value is used if no data is found in the preceding headers.
