<SIDEFILE> and </SIDEFILE>
The Sidefile tag group is used within an Output tag group to create a flat file containing extracted data for reporting. One record is written to the side file for each document placed in the output. You can specify multiple Sidefile tag groups in each Output tag group to produce multiple side files.
Note: To write multiple records per document to a flat file for reporting, use the WRITE function in a rule file.
