Field	Description
Name	The name of the lifecycle.
Description	The description of the lifecycle.
Default Cabinet	The default cabinet the lifecycle is associated with.
Allows Cabinets	Each document within a batch can be associated to a different cabinet (and therefore different indexing schema). The allows cabinets indicates the other indexing schemas available during the document lifecycle.
Indexing Mode	Either Desktop or Batch: Desktop - The documents are indexed at the point of capture, the client tools (Desktop Capture and Virtual Print Driver), or the DocuNECT Web upload documents option. Batch - Documents are either indexed automatically by lifecycle rules, or an operator using the DocuNECT Web batch indexing interface.
Status After Upload	Determines the status assigned as soon as the batch is created.
Initial Version	The version to be assigned to the document on upload.
Server Side	If the Server Side is selected then the lifecycle will not be available to the client tools (Desktop Capture and Virtual Print Driver), and the DocuNECT Web upload documents option.
Working Folder	Some lifecycle operations require a working folder to perform temporary operations. For example, document conversion and/or separation. If this field is not specified then the working folder entered against the station will be used.
Document Owner	Assign the owner of the document on upload.
