  3. Allow Paging for long lists in Folders & Windows Explorer

    There is a need, at times, to copy large numbers of documents out of DocuWare. Folders and Windows Explorer works perfectly for this purpose for smaller file cabinets.

    By Default, the maximum number of documents you can display is 10,000. If you set the number to be larger, then performance becomes unacceptable.

    It should be possible to break the documents into "groups" of 10,000 documents, and then to allow the user to go forward or backwords to the next or prefvious group of 10,000 documents. This way you can use this functionality on very large file cabinets, without the performance…

  4. Automatically redact zone on document when importing a document.

    In some cases a customer would like to automatically redact a zone on a group of documents during the import. This could very easily be an option in the Barcode & Forms Module.

  5. Remove the name field

    When looking for imports all you need is the import and the folder. Adding a name is a duplication in steps.

  6. DW Import allows for splitting by criteria when using identification

    To process batch scanning, it would be very helpful to have splitting by criteria option when having import identify PDF's that are coming in.

  7. The import makes no sense

    I currently have 4 imports with 300 to 9i000 files to be stored, When I press the Start ONCE, an import starts AND KEEPS GOING with no way to stop it. EVEN THOUGH the import says it is STOPPED it is not the RED STOPPPED but the IN IDLE stop....but is is still moving images. Then it give me a warning but the warning seems to mean nothing as Everything got stored....The whole thing is confusing.
    So to fix it I would:
    1: Change the NOT Stopped and waiting to do something to IDLE
    2: ADD a STOP button or…

  8. Add an option in the result list to “View Results in File Explorer”

    We encounter many occasions where multiple files from multiple searches must be emailed in reply to an email or uploaded to vendor or customer sites.

    Using "Send" of course causes blocking in Outlook so one needs to store the new message as a draft before continuing, and downloading multiple creates a zip file rather than individual files.

    By allowing the user to view the results of a search in file explorer, this allows for efficient use of the web client search functionality while providing standard file based integration recognized by many other applications.

  9. Camera Metadata for indexing

    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

  10. Create a cleanup tool which will allow the user to clean up documents which are stuck in pending

    Create a "Clean Up" tool which will allow the user to clean up the client machines for those documents that get "stuck" in processing. Much like cleaning up cache, we need to clean up pending documents that are stuck, restart services, and restart automatically. A tool would make this easier for the user to do this from their own desktop.

  11. Autoscan/Scan hotkey

    I feel like it would be a good idea to have the option to allow the scanner to automatically scan documents into Docuware when it detects that there are papers placed into the paper tray, or maybe even allow the user to assign a hotkey on the keyboard that will start the scanning process.

  12. Emulate PCL Printing through Docuware Printer

    If a client has a program that requires a PCL driver, it would be nice if the Docuware Printer could emulate PCL printing.

  13. Add scripting for field values on Import and Smart Connect

    Please add the ability to enhance extracted (OCR) data from documents during Import, Smart Connect and Printer. Having the ability to massage the data read (replace l with 1, z with 2, etc...) with vbscript or javascript would greatly enhance functionality.

  14. 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

  16. 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.

  17. 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.

  18. 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.

  19. 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.
