Number of copies
The value that a Conditional Branching node uses for the “number
of copies” condition is the copy count value associated with the job
at the time of Conditional branching execution. Regardless of how
a job was submitted (through submission client, Hot Folder,
Manifest), if there is a copy count value associated with the job,
that is the value that the Conditional Branching node will use at
execution time for the number of copies condition.
A copy count value is associated with a job through the following
ways:
• If an XPIF ticket was submitted with the Job (for example as
part of an RDO) and it has a copy count value, that value will
be considered the Job copy count value.
• If a JDF ticket was submitted with the job and it has a copy
count value, that value will be considered the Job copy count
value.
• If the user sets a value for the “Quantity” attribute in FreeFlow
Process Manager MAX, Manifest Automation from Xerox, that
value is considered the Job copy count value.
• If the user sets a copy count value during Review in Job
Manager, that value is considered the Job Copy count value
from that point on.
• If “Imposition affects copy count switch” is set in the WorkFlow
Builder, and the copy count value has been modified by
Imposition, once the job reaches the Conditional branching
node, the modified value is considered the Job copy count
value for Conditional Branching. For more information, see To
enable the Copy Count Divisor and Copy Count Divisor
examples.
If the job has no associated copy count value, Conditional
branching fails when it examines the number of copies condition.
A message saying “no copy count value is available” message
displays.
NOTE: Printer copy count value is not the same as Job copy
count value. The “number of copies” condition of Conditional
branching works independently of the Print nodes in a workflow
and the copy count values, if any, set during workflow design.
