Assign a failover profile

Use this procedure to assign a failover profile to documents.

Failover profiles specify what should happen to documents when they are sent to inaccessible destinations (they aren’t able to receive documents).

  1. From the Documents grid, select one or more documents
  2. Right-click the selection and click Assign Profiles > Assign Failover Profile.
    This opens the Set Failover Profile dialog box.
  3. In the Profile list, select the appropriate failover profile, or click New to create one using the Failover Profile dialog box.
    In this dialog box, you can determine what should happen if all of the retries fail and when to place the document in an error state.
  4. You can click Edit to edit the selected profile, or click Manage to display the Manage Failover Profiles dialog box, which lists all of the defined profiles.
    When managing profiles, you can create, import, and export profiles, as well as manage all existing profiles.
  5. After you select a profile, click OK.
