Limit the number of records read

[mjlongo]

Hello, I have a situation where the user might supply a file with say 100 records. Can I setup a rule or script whereby the system will stop reading records after say the 20th record? I do not want to have to manually remove records from the proved file. I want to ensure it never goes above whatever limit I end up setting it at.

As a side note: If I set the Record Range on the input tab of the compose settings screen, does this setting remain in place for a fusion pro doc that is "collected" for a Marcom portal?

Thanks!

I have not used Marcom, but to answer the first part of your question, this will work:

var RecordLimit = 20;
if (FusionPro.Composition.inputRecordNumber > RecordLimit){FusionPro.Composition.composeThisRecord = false;}

Thanks! I'll give it a shot.

BTW, does that script go in the OnJobStart or OnRecordStart?
