  1. Ability to select a shared/group mailbox for Connect to Outlook watched folder

    Right now, you can only configure the connection to your default mailbox. If you have a shared/group mailbox.. i.e AP mailbox, we would want the ability to select/create a watched folder within the group mailbox to track what items are pending to store.

  2. Allow to search across cabinets with Smart Connect

    At the moment smart search is restricted to search in a single cabinet. Being the cabinet you select when you configure smart search. For us it would be great to press the Docuware button and to be able to search across multiple cabinets.

  3. Move the settings location for DocuWare Desktop from the ProgramData to the LocalAppData

    In terminal services environments that wipe the ProgramData on a daily basis, it is difficult to work with roaming profiles and have DocuWare desktop apps work efficiently. It would be great if, in the next version perhaps, DocuWare could go back to storing these setting under AppData or another roaming folder so that it is more friendly to terminal services scenarios.

  4. 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.

  5. 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

  6. 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.

  7. 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

  8. Expand functionality in Import module

    Please take the current (vs.6.7) "Cut Out Text" and "Replace Text" functionalities that are in zone and barcode reads and add them to "Dynamic" entries.

    When importing documents from competitors systems such as ECopy, the file name often includes the indices separated by underscores (_). The "Dynamic Entry" option set to "File Name" combined with "Cut Out Text" function would allow these file names to be parsed correctly into the multiple DocuWare index fields.

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  12. 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.

  13. 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

  14. 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.

  15. Give more print setting functionality to DocuWare Printer

    DocuWare Printer prints in color by default. Many occasions a black print would be much better and also less costly in file size. Give us an option to control the color options in the default printer settings. We are having quality issues with DocuWare Printer compared to the old TiffMaker. We are also running into file size issues because documents are printing in color and they are too large to email if we want to distribute outside of DocuWare.

  16. 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.

  17. 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.
