Configuration of IDOX GMS Connector

Locate the web.config of the GMS Connector in c:\inetpub... relating to the required version (note that there may be multiple versions installed, ensure it is version 8.2 or greater). Open the web.config in an editor. For each locator that will be used in the Drilldown there will be a section identified by a PROPERTY_GROUP tag. Edit or add the tag PAO_SAO_DTF73_FORMAT to be TRUE. Example below:

<PROPERTY_GROUP name="OPTIONS">
	<PROPERTY name="EXTENDED_MATCH">True</PROPERTY>
	<PROPERTY name="FIND_HISTORIC_BLPU">TRUE</PROPERTY>
	<PROPERTY name="FIND_HISTORIC_LPI">TRUE</PROPERTY>
	<PROPERTY name="ONLY_BLPU_LOGSTAT"></PROPERTY>
	<PROPERTY name="ONLY_LPI_LOGSTAT"></PROPERTY>
	<PROPERTY name="RETURN_ALL_MATCHING_LPI">FALSE</PROPERTY>
	<PROPERTY name="NON_POSTAL_FLAG">POSTAL_ONLY</PROPERTY>
	<PROPERTY name="PAO_SAO_DTF73_FORMAT">TRUE</PROPERTY>
	<PROPERTY name="ALLOW_WILDCARD_AT_START">TRUE</PROPERTY>
</PROPERTY_GROUP>
