You can configure Store in a folder Incoming Routing Method to copy incoming faxes to specified local or network folders. Depending on the Caller Number and Called Number (DID), incoming fax can be routed to different folders.

The behavior is defined by the so-called rules. Fax Voip FSP always checks Store in a folder rules, starting with the rule # 1. The fax will be routed according to the first rule, which satisfies the conditions of the call. All other rules are ignored. For example, if rule # 1 applies for all incoming calls ('Caller ID' = .*; 'Called Number' = .*), then other rules # 2, # 3, etc. applied to incoming calls never be able to work under any conditions.

Every rule can be enabled or disabled. If the rule is disabled, Fax Voip FSP takes this rule into account (as in the case of enabled) but does not copy faxes to the specified folders. This can be used to temporarily disable store in a folder procedure for specified Caller (or Called) numbers.

To store an incoming fax in the specified folder, you must:

• Configure the Windows Fax Service to receive faxes using Fax Voip Line device(s)
• Create one or more rules, where you should specify folder names and format for saving incoming faxes

Incoming fax can be routed to one or more local or network folders. The format for saving incoming faxes can be TIFF, PDF or SFF.

The maximum supported number of Store in a folder rules is specified by the current license. The rules that can not be used in the current configuration of the program are always highlighted in red and ignored.

To view Store in a folder fax routing method log, use Enable 'Store in a folder' incoming routing method debug logging option, see more details in the Incoming Routing Methods Logs chapter of this user manual.
