SharePoint 2010 or newer

Select this check box if you are using SharePoint 2010 or newer. If selected, Output Manager will use the SharePoint 2010 Client interface to communicate with the SharePoint site. If not, Output Manager will use the SharePoint Copy Web service (Copy.asmx) that is supported by all versions of SharePoint.

You can configure a default value and a dynamic override for each of the following options. Default values are used to manage the documents as they are being sent to the destination. You can choose to dynamically override the default values using document properties and functions.

  • To insert document properties, right-click in the desired override box and click Insert Document Property. A menu containing all of the available properties displays. You can select a property from the list or type the property name. If a property is selected and it contains a value, that value is processed instead of the default value.
  • To insert functions, right-click in the box, click Insert Function, and choose the appropriate function. Review the Using Output Manager functions help topic for information on configuring functions.
Library Specifies the name of the library in the SharePoint site where the files should be stored.
Folder Specifies the name of the subfolder in the Library, where the files should be stored. If a folder is not specified, the files will be placed in the root folder of the Library. This field is optional.
Document name Specifies the name to use when naming the document on the SharePoint site. To pass the Output Manager name through, use [Document Name].
Overwrite Select this check box to overwrite a document if a document with the same name is found. If a document of the same name already exists at that location, and you choose not to overwrite, the new document will not be written to the site.
Check-in Select this check box to mark the file as Checked In on the SharePoint site. If you clear this check box, a document remains checked out by the user specified in the User name field above.
SharePoint fields Click this button to specify values to put in SharePoint fields or to map Output Manager fields to the SharePoint fields.

SharePoint libraries have various fields or columns to describe the files stored in them. They can also have custom fields to provide further descriptive information. Some of these fields can be modified by the user.
