Import and configure an RBA rule set that accepts manual data input from the PLA Client to create a layout, create a job in the Prinergy Workflow software, and import the layout into the Prinergy Workflow job. 

The RBA rule set can be extended with any number of valid RBA actions, such as creating a layout proof after the layout is successfully imported into the Prinergy Workflow job and sending an e-mail message to a customer service representative or operator after the layout proof is successfully created.

After you complete the procedure on this page, you will continue by configuring one of the following rule sets:

• PLA System Level Rule rule set (to store XML job tickets in a central repository)
• PLA System Level Rule - Versatile Layout Home rule set  (to store XML job tickets in the newly-created job)

Requirements

To enter manual data, you must use an existing layout ticket template or create a new layout ticket template to suit the requirements of your production environment. If necessary, create a new layout ticket template by using the template creation tools on the Configuration tab in the PLA Client software. The Configuration tab is visible only if you log on to the client computer as an administrator.

Creating a Prinergy template for all jobs created by PLA

1. In Workshop, create a job or pre-job called PLATemplateJob that you will use as a template job for all jobs created by PLA. You will use this job in the next procedure.
   • For instructions on creating template jobs, see the Prinergy Workflow Workshop User Guide.
   • This step is not necessary if:
     • You will be using the PLA System Level Rule - Versatile Layout Home rule set.
     • You have already created a template job as described in the Setting up an RBA rule for creating layouts from MIS procedure.
   • To reduce the chance of the template job being accidentally modified or erased, create this job as a pre-job, which is less visible to operators. If this job is deleted, the RBA Create Job action will fail.
   • This job can also act as a repository for XML job tickets created by PLA. It must be preserved to prevent the loss of these tickets as templates.
2. In Workshop, select Tools > Rule Set Manager.
   Do not open Rule Set Manager from within a job. 
3. Select File > New Group, type a name for the group, and click OK.
   Note: This guide uses PLA System Rule Sets as an example.
4. In the Rule Set Library pane, select the newly created group.
5. Click File > Import and perform these actions:
   1. From the Program Files (x86)\Kodak\Layout Automation\Sample Files\RuleSets folder on the Prinergy Workflow primary server, select LayoutAutomationRuleset.zip .
   2. Click Import.
6. Confirm that the newly created PLA System Rule Sets group contains the following rule sets:
   
   • PLA Custom Event
   • PLA Delete PLA Job and Layouts Only
   • PLA Delete Prinergy Layout
   • PLA Delete Prinergy Layout-Versatile Layout Home
   • PLA Import Prinergy Layout
   • PLA System Level Rule
   • PLA System Level Rule-Versatile Layout Home
   • PLA XML Validation Failed Warning

...

导入和配置从 PLA 客户端接受手动数据输入创建版式的 RBA 规则集，在印能捷工作流程软件中创建作业，并将版式导入到印能捷工作流程作业。

RBA 规则集可以通过任何数量的有效 RBA 操作进行扩展，例如在版式成功导入到印能捷工作流程作业后创建版式打样，以及在成功创建版式打样后发送电子邮件消息给客户服务代表或操作者。

在您完成此页面上的步骤后，您可以通过配置以下任意一个规则集继续：

• PLA 系统级规则规则集（用于在中央存储库中存储 XML 作业）
• PLA 系统级规则 - 通用版式主页规则集（用于在最新创建的作业中存储 XML 作业传票）

要求

要输入手动数据，您必须使用现有的版式传票模板或创建新的传票模板以满足您的生产环境要求。 如有必要，通过使用 PLA 客户端软件“配置”选项卡上的模板创建工具创建新的版式传票模板。 “配置”选项卡仅在您作为管理员登录客户端计算机时可见。

针对 PLA 创建的所有作业创建一个印能捷模板

...

• 关于创建模板作业的说明，请参阅《印能捷工作流程 Workshop 用户指南》。
• 如果出现以下情况，则无需执行此步骤：
  • 您将使用 PLA 系统级规则 - 通用版式主页规则集。
  • 您已经创建了设置 RBA 规则以供通过 MIS 创建版式步骤中所描述的模板作业。
• 要减少模板作业被意外修改或删除的机会，请将此作业创建为不易被操作员看到的预交作业。 如果此作业被删除，RBA 创建作业操作将失败。
• 此作业也可作为 PLA 创建的 XML 作业传票的存储库。 必须对其进行保留以防止丢失这些作为模板的传票。
