Document Monitoring

This operation allows you to run a process against all documents in a document library that have met an expiration date. An expiration date column in the document library is used as the reference for the expiration date, along with a document owner column, and works in conjunction with a gate keeper swimlane in a process. When the expiration date arrives, the document is automatically routed with a designated workflow, where the document owner is assigned the Originator swimlane.

Note: Documents that are Checked Out will not be routed.
