How items are specified within a DLO determines whether MIMIX selects or omits them from processing. This information can help you understand what is included or omitted.
When determining whether to process a journal entry for a DLO, MIMIX looks for a match between the DLO information in the journal entry and one of the data group DLO entries. The folder path is the most significant search element, followed by the document name, then the owner. The most significant match found (if any) is checked to determine whether to process the entry.
An exact or generic folder path name in a data group DLO entry applies to folder paths that match the entry as well as to any unnamed child folders of that path which are not covered by a more explicit entry. For example, a data group DLO entry with a folder path of “ACCOUNT” would also apply to a transaction for a document in folder path ACCOUNT/JANUARY. If a second data group DLO entry with a folder path of “ACCOUNT/J*” were added, it would take precedence because it is more specific.
For a folder path with multiple elements (for example, A/B/C/D), the exact checks and generic checks against data group DLO entries are performed on the path. If no match is found, the lowest path element is removed and the process is repeated. For example, A/B/C/D is reduced to A/B/C and is rechecked. This process continues until a match is found or until all elements of the path have been removed. If there is still no match, then checks for folder path *ALL are performed.
