  1. Make Windows file meta information available

    Access Windows meta information during indexing files in the Document Tray or in Import Configurations. Many files contain native data that can be valuable in the documents index, ex., for photos, timestamps, camera Id and etc. - this would be an advance equivalent to point and shoot for the operator and a huge enhancement to Import

  2. Make the Import jobs collapsible to make a list.

    When there are many import jobs setup, it would be nice if they showed more as a list that can then be expanded (the item selected) to see the details instead of having all the details available at first glance. A long list means a lot longer to scroll to get to where you want.

  3. Connect to Outlook: Able to Attach a Document from a Quick Search to an Email Reply

    Situation: You have an email from which you need to reply to and attach a Document From DocuWare.

    Suggestion: Rather than having to either download it or send it as a new document via the Quick Search, you should be able to pick the document and attach it directly to a specific email as an attachment. It would make it more efficient for people who use C2O and Outlook exclusively.

  4. More search options with Connect to Outlook

    We would like to see more search options in Connect to Outlook. Currently I have to tie the search to either a fixed value or a field in the email. We should be able to create a search dialog or use an existing search dialog to search Docuware right from Outlook so the user can search in Outlook, the same way they search in DW.

  5. FIX DWPRINTER COMPRESSION

    Im having problems using DWPrinter, because when i print a document DW printer create a PDF file, but if my original file size is 4.4mb for a JPG after i use DWPrinter the FIle Size would be 9.6mb. That means that creating a document via DWPrinter will increase file size. I also do a few test with other PDF Printers and the file size was less than 400 kb. How can you fix this issue

  7. Connect to Outlook Watched Folders should have an option to keep the email in the watched folder

    Right now watched folders in Outlook automatically deletes the emails that are put in that folder with out an option to change. In DocuWare 5 deleting the original was always an option. Would like to see that option returned. -- Plus, it makes more sense to have this option available for both watched folders and regular connect to outlook configurations anyway.

  9. Add the abilty to store email without attachment in Connect to Outlook.

    Connect to Outlook should have an option to store the email without attachment as a 4th option. Right now we have the following options when storing an email:

    1. Email and attachment, show email first
    2. Attachment only
    3. Email and attachment, show attachments first

    Would be great to have a 4th option: Email only

  10. Connect To Office App

    How about a Connect To Office App, this app would be like the old Office add in and work similar to how Connect To Outlook does.

    This could work alongside WEC rather than replace it. A lot of companies miss the old add in and the WEC although good can be a longer method of storing for the customer.

  11. Have SmartConnect recognize apps by screen-scraping.

    So many applications, especially the web-based packages that are so prevalent these days, don't change their window name as the user navigates through them. This is reducing the effectiveness of SmartConnect because it's growing more and more unable to recognize where/when to place buttons. If we could include a hot zone that it would look at, much like it does when auto-populating index fields, to help it decide when/where to show buttons that would maintain SmartConnects forward-compatibility.

  12. Call DW Desktop scanning for integration

    We are doing many integrations with DocuWare; in many cases the user would like to scan and store documents from within their applications.
    I suggest to introduce methods where the user will call a certain scanning settings to scan and store documents "usually to file cabinet". this should have the ability to get the passed indexing criteria from the application.

    I believe this should be introduced to work via platform services and Smart Connect. it will be also great if it could technically work via URL integration.

  13. Allow DocuWare Printer to print random documents to a specific basket.

    DocuWare Printer is designed to identify a document which determines how the document will be stored in DocuWare. I have several customers that use Tiffmaker to print random documents to specific user baskets. There is no way to do this other than sending to a default basket with DocuWare printer.

  14. Allow the ability to select mulitple pages from the viewer and e-mail them together

    If we have several pages within a document, but only 3 of the pages need to be e-mailed to someone, you have to copy the document to the basket, un staple it, select only the pages you need and then it still puts them as individual pages in the e-mail. Adding the option to select multiple pages from the viewer and send would save several steps. Right now it only gives you the option to send the entire document

  15. Extract Attachments of MSG and EML files during import

    If you store a mail as msg or eml file outside of Connect to Mail or Connect to Outlook you just get the mail body in the viewer. Attachements are shown as blue links within the mail body. The internal viewer is not able to page through the attachments as with other multi-file documents.
    I recommend that during the import process the attachments should be extracted and stored as additional files so that the user can view them from inside DocuWare rather than download and open it with the mail client.

  17. Connect to Mail - add the ability to autorotate attachments just like with DWImport

    I have a client that has incoming emails with documents attached that were scanned sideways. It would be very helpful if we could import these documents with Connect to Mail and Autorotate them on the way in to the file cabinet.

  18. Allow Import configurations to monitor not only folders but also webbaskets

    This used to be functionality in Active Import. That allowed for building complex multi-step import configurations.

  19. Enhance "document splitting" in DW Import to allow splitting on multiple readoutareas when 1 "OR" the other changes, not just "AND"

    I would like to be able to split a report based on multiple pieces of data, when either 1 or the other changes. For example, a document containing a batch or "purchase orders from the customer" that is sorted by "customer #" and then "customer purchase order". A customer may have sent in multiple POs in the batch. It is always possible that 2 different customers could send in the same purchase order number in the same batch.

  20. Keep Entries or Store All for the Connect to Outlook Plugin

    When trying to store emails with a store dialog, there is no "Keep Entries" or "Store All" that functionality would be very useful when dealing with large amounts of email.
