Configure a File Router step
A File Router step opens a source file data item, evaluates child route formulas in order and copies the file to the first matching route's File Connection. The step itself has no additional published scalar settings; its route items own the destinations and formulas.
| Route item setting | Default | Effect |
|---|---|---|
Route name / ItemName | <New Route Item> | Descriptive rule identity. |
File Connection / FileConFIDS | Empty | Destination path/naming module for a match. |
| File Connection name | Empty | Stored display name; the FID is the relationship authority. |
| Formula | Route template | Velox script condition evaluated for the current source context. |
Configure deterministically
- Select a File Definition source and create route items in priority order.
- Make route formulas mutually understandable; place specific rules before broad catch-alls.
- Select a tested destination File Connection for every route.
- Compile each formula and test matched, unmatched, overlapping and error cases.
- Verify the first-match result and final name/path with sanitised files.
Only the first matching route copies. In Test Run the router evaluates the logic but suppresses its normal copy, so use log/formula evidence and a controlled live test before activation. A formula error or missing source/destination can fail/cancel the step. Route destinations use the service identity and can overwrite/collide according to File Connection naming behaviour. See route/command overview and File Connection naming.
