Morning All, I'm wondering if you can help me. I currently have 387 documents in my admin station, and it would be really nice if I could see the date and time these documents were created as a column. I'm running the standalone version of Flexi Capture - version 10.0.5.1551
I have actually done this, but I am convinced there must be an easier way! The way I have done it is to :-
- Open the Document Definition editor
- Create a service field with the data source being "Document Creation time" (note that a service field cannot be an index field - the option is greyed out)
- Create a text field, set it as an index field under the general tab, and add a script on to that of "context.field("CreateDateIndex").value = context.field("createdate").value"
- Create a custom column for the batch view and link it to the new index field (per document definition
With 36 current document definitions, and this number is rising, adding these 2 fields to each one seems rather long winded, and having to add 2 fields seems a little backwards. I have been playing with "context.document" a little to see if I can find the document create date via script but I find the intelisense and documentation on this rather lacking.
Any pointers would be gratefully appreciated.
Many Thanks
Jordan Fey

Just discovered the "Modified by" column contains not just Who modified it, but also the time it was modified - this is close enough !
Jordanfey,
I'm glad you were able to find your solution. The only thing is I think the Modified by column might change. I think it the last time someone modified. So when a document comes in and get recognized, that is 1st time. If a Verification Operator changes something, technically the time might change to this time now.
Not sure if you have Distributed Version, but if so you could write a custom script workflow to get what you want but from the sound of "Admin Station" you might have a Standalone station. In which case, doing what you did in the DocDef would be the best option but tedious
