Database Module

The Database module is an advanced module that allows read/write access to databases (through ODBC data sources) without the need for extensive scripting. With the database module, business or job management software can be used in conjunction with Switch workflows to further automate job decisions.

An active Database module license provides you with access to:

The ODBC data sources option in the User preferences dialog (required to set up a database connection and to use database variables).
The Database connect flow element (available in the Database category of the Flow elements pane). This flow element allows you to configure certain settings in databases without having to script them.
Database variables. This allows you to use any values from your database in Switch.

Database values when defining metadata for a Submit point on the Switch Web Portal or a Connector in Connect ALL (see the Connect documentation on the Enfocus website).
