Set hierarchy path

Set hierarchy path is a processor that replaces or augments the hierarchy path in the internal job ticket by constructing a fresh path from the segments specified as its properties. There are five segment properties and thus a maximum of five path segments can be specified (an empty value means "unused").

Since the segment properties support variables ( and script expressions), this tool is a great help when building custom archive hierarchies, for example organizing jobs in a folder hierarchy based on today's year, month, and day.
