Adding Inserts with Static File Names

Note: Use this method when you only have a limited number of inserts to append, when the inserts have different <TYPE> values, or when the inserts require different AFP or Xerox print resources. You must define each insert in a control file Insertpage group. If you need to select from multiple possible inserts of the same type (and using the same print resources) dynamically, we recommend that you define only one Insertpage group and set the file in the rule file, shown below.

Do the following to append inserts whose file definition will not change:

  1. Create the supplemental pages and save them.
  2. Use Insertpage tag groups in the control file to identify any of these pages that might be used while processing the application. Within each Insertpage group, specify a <FILE> tag that defines the file to be associated with the Insertpage.
  3. Use <APPEND> commands in the rule file to designate which insert pages to append and where to append them. The order in which EngageOne™ Enrichment executes the <APPEND> commands in the rule file determines the order in which it assembles the insert pages.

The following diagram illustrates this process.

Note: If the insert uses COPYGROUP or PAGEFORMAT commands, all files set to the same insert must use the same AFP resources or have fields in the same places.
