Undo Separation is a Separation Provider. Instead of putting loose contract Batch Pages into folder Batch Folders, this Separation Provider removes Batch Folders, leaving only loose pages.
If done at the Batch level (by setting the Separation activity's Scope property to Batch), this would remove all folders in the Batch. Only loose pages would remain. However, this can be done at the folder level as well. If you have a situation where your Batch has two folder levels but one needs to be removed, Undo Separation will remove folders up to the level specified (i.e. If you set the Separation activity's scope to Folder and folder level to 1, all folders below the first folder level would be removed. Any pages in folders below the first level would be appended to the folder level above it.)

Glossary
Batch Folder: The folder Batch Folder is an organizational unit within a inventory_2 Batch, allowing for a structured approach to managing and processing a collection of documents. Batch Folder nodes serve two purposes in a Batch. (1) Primarily, they represent "documents" in Grooper. (2) They can also serve more generally as folders, holding other Batch Folders and/or contract Batch Page nodes as children.
- Batch Folders are frequently referred to simply as "documents" or "folders" depending on how they are used in the Batch.
Batch Page: contract Batch Page nodes represent individual pages within a inventory_2 Batch. Batch Pages are created in one of two ways: (1) When images are scanned into a Batch using the Scan Viewer. (2) Or, when split from a PDF or TIFF file using the Split Pages activity.
- Batch Pages are frequently referred to simply as "pages".
Batch: inventory_2 Batch nodes are fundamental in Grooper's architecture. They are containers of documents that are moved through workflow mechanisms called settings Batch Processes. Documents and their pages are represented in Batches by a hierarchy of folder Batch Folders and contract Batch Pages.
Scope: The Scope property of a edit_document Batch Process Step, as it relates to an Activity, determines at which level in a inventory_2 Batch hierarchy the Activity runs.
Separation Provider: The Provider property of the Separate Activity defines the type of separation to be performed at the designated Scope.
Separation: Separation is the process of taking an unorganized inventory_2 Batch of loose contract Batch Pages and organizing them into documents represented by folder Batch Folders in Grooper. This is done so Grooper can later assign a description Document Type to each document folder in a process known as "classification".
Undo Separation: Undo Separation is a Separation Provider. Instead of putting loose contract Batch Pages into folder Batch Folders, this Separation Provider removes Batch Folders, leaving only loose pages.
