Disallow jobs - The Client cancels the job, and displays a message to the
user.
Ignore old jobs - Same as Track Normally, except that any jobs older
than the specified number of days are ignored.
Disconnected Disallowed Message - This is the message that displays to the
user if their job was disallowed due to no connection to the Database
Communicator. This is only available if "Disallow jobs" is set for the disconnected
job option.
Number of Days Until Old - This is the number of days old the job must be
before it is ignored. Only available if "Ignore old jobs" is set for the disconnected
job option.

Custom Rules
Overview
New in Print Audit 6 is the ability for you to create custom rules. These rules can
allow you to handle almost any printing control needs within your organization.
Using Custom Rules you can select one or more conditions that trigger one or
more actions to take place within the software. For example, you could allow
free printing after a certain time of day, send an email to people if jobs of a
certain size are printed, display messages to users, etc. You can also define
rules that depend on other rules being triggered, so the possibilities are
endless.
For most printing needs, such as basic limits and pricing, you can use our User
Profiles, Applications or Printer Profiles for your needs, but for complex printing
situations and environments Custom Rules may be required. When you define a
Custom Rule, the behavior you define in the rule overrides any other settings
that you may have made in other areas of the application.
Rules work by evaluating one or more conditions you define, and if those
conditions are met the rule triggers one or more actions you define. It is very
simple to define rules, but given the combinations of actions and conditions you
can create rules to handle very complex situations.
