Processing Configuration
This is the defaul 'processingMCP.xml' that is included, in the root directory, when processing a SIP or Transfer. If a SIP or transfer is submitted with a 'processingMCP.xml' file processing decisions will be made with the included file. Pre-configured choices made here, are based off the choices that appear in the dashboard.
The format is:
<preconfiguredChoice>
<appliesTo>Workflow decision - send transfer to quarantine</appliesTo>
<goToChain>Skip quarantine</goToChain>
</preconfiguredChoice>
Where appliesTo is the name of the job presented in the dashboard, and goToChain is the desired selection. Note: these are case sensitive.
