SG01_Devices Batch Queue Interface

                               Device File - Interface screen

 

1.Interface type - Select HEADER from the drop down list.
2.Output path  - Enter the directory where the batch queue files will be placed.  Use %ROOT% to indicate that ChartNet root directory.  Typically, the Output Path will be:  %root%\batch\[sitecode]
3.File name format  - Select one of the pre-defined formats from the drop down list. It is recommended to use REPORT_ID for most batches, so that the reports will all have unique file names and should a report be distributed more than once before the batch is printed, it will overlay the existing file.
