  2. Import as a service

    It would be useful to have an option to run DW Import as a service.

    DocuWare Import is already a service which can import documents even if no user is logged in. Just set up an Import job watching a local folder and then the documents are imported automatically. If you want to monitor network folders then you need to be logged in, as the service does not have access rights to the network. Or you could change the service user account.

  4. Provide more information with the history

    The current history provides NO information as to why there was a warning or an error . It would be helpful as to WHAT the warning was for and what the error was..ALSO IF the error was related to DATA that was poorly formed ie: bad field, bad date, etc it seems more prudent to provide the users a way to deal with theses images.....EXAMPLE: Image is being brought in using dwcontrol and the date field is a bad date (like Feb, 31, 2015) but the rest of the data is good, instead of FAILING the image and placing it…

  5. create either a toggle or double click feature for seperating documents

    instead of having to " right click, separate here" create either a button you can toggle on and off at the top that allows you to single or double click where you want to separate. or just make any double click "separate here"

  6. Connect to outlook destination be tray rather than cabinet

    In connect to outlook, allow a tray to be a destination as well as a cabinet. Many times we need to make a quick change or comment before storing into a cabinet.

  7. Storing multiple files with WEC.

    When store multiple files using DocuWare WEC there should be an option to store multiple files with out have the store dialog being displayed for each file. The was an option of DocuWare 6.5 but has been removed from DocuWare 6.6.

  9. Allow more than two buttons for smart connect keystroke combinations

    When using smart connect it is only possible to use two keys (eg. SHIFT-P) for one configuration.
    Using many smart connect configurations (or using other programs that need keystroke combinations) may cause problems finding keystroke combinations that are still available.

    The easiest way to solve the problem would be adding a third key , eg. SHIFT-ALT-P.

  10. Seperate the Delete Page and Delete Document or give an "are you sure" question before it deletes

    So many times we have scanned a large document and went to delete out a couple of blank pages and the Delete document was accidently hit and you loose everything. Either create an "are you sure" option for the Delete Document or move it away from the Delete Page

  11. Lack of functionnalities - Scan - Import modules

    We are missing 'Capture' functionnalities within the Import & scan modules:

    • Blank pages removal
    • Index Enhancement: Database lookup (as in the old active-import module)
    • Allow index 'handling' Ex, barcode recognition + split barcode values for assigning to other index fields,...

    It's seems actually be designed for manual indexing & templates.

    Completed  ·  Mario Schwarz responded

    This is available with version 6.5. Index enhancement is only available with Autoindex

  13. Restore the ability to connect SmartConnect to a read only connection.

    You cannot connect docuware desktop apps (or officially the mobile client) to the read only platform instance. you could do these things in 6.1.

  14. Introduce Document Identification to the Docuware Import

    The Docuware printer is great because based on OCR it can identify documents so that it can choose which Docuware printer profile to use. For example if an invoice from “Vendor A” is received it knows the document layout for indexing for Vendor A, and likewise for Vendor B, etc. Furthermore based off the identification it can determine the destination such as storing in a specific cabinet or basket.

    Docuware Import should be given the same functionality, such that it is able to identify documents based off specified identification regions. From this identification it should be able to determine which…

  15. Allow the end user to change the page size in DocuWare Printer.

    By default the page size sent to a basket from DocuWare Printer is A4. Although this can be changed in the registry, this is not convenient for the end users. I propose that the end users be allowed to change this in the Windows printer preferences dialog. Additionally, it would be beneficial if separate instances of the DocuWare printer could be created for different page sizes- e.g. DocuWare Printer Letter, DocuWare Printer Legal, etc.

  16. Windows Explorer Client - Edit Documents

    When a customer is using the Windows Explorer Client they should be able to edit the doc(as long as they have the rights) by double clicking rather than having to right click and edit.

    It is very confusing that if you double click you can edit the document & save it back to the same location but this does nothing to the document within DocuWare.

  17. I suggest that Connect To Outlook allows users to choose what parts of the email to store witin the store dialog.

    When storing an email, many users would prefer to be able to choose what part of the email to store. There are 3rd party add ons that allow this. It is frustrating for users when the logo from their email signatures are stored and is the first thing displayed in the viewer instead of the important PDF that was attached.

    Starting in Version 6.8 we added the ability to strip images in email (by size and type). In 6.9 we added the ability to exclude all inline images. In the dialog you have the option to choose what is stored first, the email body or the attachments. Additionally, with Version 6.11 you will be able to store each attachment individually with separate store configurations.

  18. Allow for Meta Index files like in Active Import

    There was a significant loss in functionality when Active Import was replaced with Import. The addition of Meta Index Files would be very helpful.

  19. Enhance document separation based on barcodes

    Importer allows you to specify OCR criteria for splitting of documents rather well. For barcodes, this is not possible yet. It would be great if you could enhance this so that a specific value from a barcode (either full code or part of that code) can be defined. You should also consider allowing the length of the barcode as a criterium for separation.

  20. Remove the barcode page after import

    At times, customers do not allow us to stick on the barcode into the original documents. Hence, you have to print out the barcode page to do the splitting of the document-type.

    After importing the documents and doing the splitting the DW Import does NOT have the option to remove this inserted barcode page. It is found in Active Import module.

    I strong recommend to include an option to remove the inserted barcode page to complete the effectiveness on the Barcode insertion.
