Under ‘Action’ select the action ‘Assign Document’ and enter the file name format you have saved the uploaded files in the ‘Document (file) Name’ field and click ‘Save’ to save the rule.
Scenario #1

In the above scenario, if there is a file name with (%TheirRef% = 1001.Pdf) and an order with reference number (%TheirRef% = 1001) then when above rule is applied, the file 1001.Pdf is automatically assigned to order/shipment that has reference number 1001.
Scenario #2

In above scenario, if there is a file name with (%TheirRef% = Prescription_1003.Pdf) and an order with reference number (%TheirRef% = 1003) then when above rule is applied, the file Prescription_1003.Pdf is automatically assigned to order/shipment that has reference number 1003.
Note: A rule can include multi-conditions and one action. An infinite number of rules can be created. You can assign multiple documents to an order/shipment using multiple rules.
Step 3: Run Rules
Go to ‘File List’ & click ‘Run Rules’ to run all saved rules

On completion, you will receive the message below

Important: Document rules will not run automatically. You will have to trigger run rules manually to assign documents to orders.
