Deferred Copy Document plugin properties
The Deferred Copy Document plugin is similar to the Copy Document plugin in that it is used to create a copy of a document and deposit it in either a SharePoint document library or a file system directory.
The key difference is that the Deferred Copy Document plugin puts the copying of the document in a queue for processing until the next time SVService runs. See Configuring SVService for more information.
This plugin is used in workflows published to DocEx sites.
NOTE: For site and list parameters, enter the site first, and then the list will be populated in the dropdown.

Description |
conversion |
If converting the document, the type of conversion you want to execute. By default this setting should be entered as DefaultConv if you are only using one conversion tool. NOTE: This option is not required if you are only copying a document to a SharePoint document library. |
directory | The file system directory to which to copy the document. Either directory or list must be specified. |
folder | The name of the SharePoint document library in which you want to copy the document. If the folder is unspecified, the document is copied to the root of the document library. |
list | The SharePoint document library to which to copy the document. |
name |
Specifies the new name for the document. NOTE: If this option is not used, then the copy of the document will retain the same name as the source file in the document library. |
site | The SharePoint site to which to copy the document. |
Example
- folder – [Due Date]
- list – MOCs
- name – [NewID].[BaseName].[FileType]
- site – http://acme.com/sv/DocEx
This example copies the process’s associated document to the folder contained in the SharePoint column Due Date in the list MOCs in the site http://acme.com/sv/DocEx. The file will be renamed to the value in the NewID field, followed by a _, followed by the base name of the document, followed by the file’s extension.
To add multiple columns to be updated, click the Add button (top right corner), enter the column name (such as [Approved By]), and then enter the value to be set for the column.
