Dispatch Groups Control The Information Merged Onto Field Orders
Every field order references a dispatch group. The dispatch group controls the following field order print functions:
- It contains an algorithm that is responsible for extracting the
information merged onto your field orders. Algorithms of this type
are called under the following scenarios:
- The background process that interacts with your field order print software calls these algorithms.
- If your field order print software has the ability to construct
a real-time image of a field order, you can plug-in an Online Field
Order Image algorithm on the Installation Record. This type of algorithm
will call the field order's dispatch group extract algorithm to extract
the information that is merged onto the field order. Refer to Technical Implementation Of Online Field order Image for the details.
Refer to The Field Order Extract Records for examples of the record layouts passed to the document composition application.
- It contains the ID of the background process responsible for interacting with your field order print software in batch.
