Automation rules automatically process images based on data (email addresses, names, labels, etc.) entered into the imaging system prior to an examination. Tricefy uses this information to automatically send studies to patients, apply labels, and other automated actions.

If adding a condition, select an option from the When drop-down menu to specify when the automation is applied:
- Choosing an option under Instance will automatically route images for the following instances:
- Destination AE Title or Extension will route study images each time a specific imaging system is used
- We created two stores when configuring the ultrasound system
- These stores are typically named "archive" and "patient" -refer to your DICOM settings
- Enter the name of the store into the Equals text box
- If you are creating this automation rule to automatically download a study PDF, select Destination AE Title from the drop-down menu and enter "Study-PDF" into the Equals text box
- After creating this condition, skip to the Routing to an External Server below
- We created two stores when configuring the ultrasound system
- Is or contains a PDF will automatically route images each time the study contains a PDF document

- Destination AE Title or Extension will route study images each time a specific imaging system is used
- Choosing an option under DICOM Fields will run the process when specific information is entered into that DICOM field
- Type the information that needs to be entered into the Equals text box
- For example, if Dr. Julie works for two Clinics with Tricefy accounts, choose Operators Name as the DICOM field and type "Dr. Julie" into the text box. Each time Dr. Julie is entered into the Operators Name field of the imaging machine, study data will route to the appropriate account
- Type the information that needs to be entered into the Equals text box
