Is there a way to automatically split out multiple attached documents in a web form?

 I have an internal web form that users attach 3 different document type to, however they all come in a a single clipped document. I can manually go in and split them up, however this defeats the automated aspect of using the forms.

TIA

Sadly, the answer is that it cannot yet be done. i hope this is addressed in a future release.

It can be achieved using DocuWare SDK. I can image the simple workflow which will start after new document store. Then it will call webservice  (to be written) which will connect to Docuware using SDK and check document. In case there are several clipped files it will:
a. extract all of them
b. for all clips except the first one creates new documents with the same index entries as the main one (first document with the first clip)
c. clip 2nd, 3rd files from the first documents to the new documents
d. assign some unique number to documents 2nd, 3rd etc...
e. remove all clips except the first one
f. in case of any issue revert the original document to the initial stage (cancel step e) and remove the newly created documents

Is it something you are looking for ?

Does anyone know if this can already be done natively? @Marcin, do you have an example of what you mention with Docuware SDK?
