Import, OCR, & Delete Script - Reverting File Name

Hello,

I have a number of bank statements, credit card statements, etc. that are automatically renamed using Hazel and moved to a folder called Holding Folder. I just set up a new one and noticed that it’s reverting to its original name. I tried eliminating the automatic move to Holding Folder to see what happened, and I experienced the same behavior; it was one name when I moved it into Holding Folder, and in Devonthink, it was back to the original name.

Any ideas? I’m not really sure where to go with this. Here’s the script for reference; in my (very novice) opinion, it looks fine, and I don’t see how this would be happening.

Welcome @notte

Are you running DEVONthink 3 public beta 6? If not, you should be.

Look in the Smart Rules section for a rule named Incoming Scans.

If you find it, Control-click and Remove it or Edit it and change the event trigger to On Demand.

Bingo! That was my problem. Thanks so much.

You’re very welcome. Cheers!
