Design¶
The Document Incoming Module introduces the following concepts:
Incoming Document¶
The Incoming Document contains a list of files to process.
When a document is processed, it creates a new record following its type set.
The extension in the name is used to determine the MIME type of the document.
A document can be replaced by a sets of children documents. In this case the parent document is deactivated.
Configuration¶
The Incoming Document Configuration concept is used to store the settings which affect how the system behaves in relation to incoming documents.
