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.

Activities can run at different levels in a Batch.

They can run on the following:

• Batch
• Batch Folders within the batch (including document folders and generic folders)
• Individual Batch Page level

One example of how scope is used in Grooper is seen below. In this example the Separate activity using the Undo Separation provider was run on a Batch containing multiple folder levels. The activity was run at three scope levels:

1. The Batch level
2. The first Batch Folder level
3. The second Batch Folder level

The original Batch with three Batch Folder levels	Undo Separation ran at the Batch scope. All folders are removed.	Undo Separation ran at Folder > Level 1 scope. All folders below the first level are removed.	Undo Separation ran at Folder > Level 2 scope. All folders below the second level are removed.
