Document Attribute - File System storage buggy

[ACDC]

I have been trying to convert some of my Document attributes to store files in the File System and as far as i am concerned this feature just does not work.

Sometimes the system reports an error that it cannot find the file path for document image

The rule on the Object that contains the file path is there, but the system ignores it . It seems when creating the Object you have to insert the rule in the process that creates the object. I was hoping to rely on a rule on the object to set the path. This method only works sometimes. Its as though the system is checking for the existence of a path before the rule resolves. So the priority of the rule order is wrong. (I have tried all sorts of tricks so the rule and the attribute gets a high priority but no luck )

I know the set up of the rule is correct because I don't have a problem if I embed the rule in a process when the object is being created. here is an example of the rule on the object that fails at times:
MainDocument.DocumentFSPath='C:\DocumentStore\<<MainDocument.ID>>.pdf'

Why is the system reporting this error, as the rule is there on the object
