The Setting: Document Generation Behavior condition will check the setting Document Generation found in General Settings
An example of this in use can be seen in the Default Specification Flow. It is available as a Condition on the task Release Documents for the Enter State event on both the Pending and Completed States.
| Property Name | Description |

| Negated | Determines if the meaning of the condition should be reversed, so if it returns FALSE it will be treated as TRUE. |
