Queries

Queries contain filters based on document types and metadata, and are used by Post-processors to query the Document Broker repository for documents. A query specifies which documents to select, and the action to apply to the selected documents:

•	Process the selected documents.

•	Process and delete the selected documents.

•	Delete the selected documents.

Document Broker Plus supports two different query syntaxes:

•	Document Broker Query (DBQ) – syntax developed for Document Broker Plus. You can use Document Broker Query Tool to create DBQs.

•	Post-Processor Query (PPQ) – syntax originally developed for Document Broker for FastObjects (which is no longer supported). In Document Broker Plus you can use manually created or auto-generated PPQs.
