  2. Smart Connect Smart Search: "OR" the values retrieved in an List Readout Area.

    Smart Connect Smart Search:

    Please "OR" the values retrieved in an SC List Readout Area.

    If you have two Readout areas on a form (A & B) SmartConnect will (automatically) "AND" the values (A AND B) to retrieve the correct record/document from the database. BUT if one of the Readout areas is a "List" of values (B,C,D, etc)... it breaks. It SHOULD (A AND (B OR C OR D)). This functionality is present in the standard search dialog...

  3. Add 4x6 size to the DocuWare Printer registry change

    For the registry change in DocuWare printer, add the 4x6 size for labels. We would like to use printer redirection to capture a shipping label, and send it to a printer.

  5. can we name our documents before scanning so that we can find it easily in our tray

    We were able to name our documents in Fortis before scanning but don't seem to be able to do so with DocuWare. It makes it easier to find a document in your intray without opening up each one.

  6. Allow someone to delete an auto upload that is pending.

    If papers are in auto upload but do not load there should be a way to delete them with a click of a button.

  7. Mac OSX compatibility with Desktop Apps is ESSENTIAL. Otherwise, a web-based solution that is not OS specific would work.

    Mac OSX compatibility with Desktop Apps is ESSENTIAL. Otherwise, a web-based solution that is not OS specific would work. Our school uses 99.5% Mac OSX. The web capabilities are the only way we can make use of DocuWare. But all features are not available, specifically, Desktop Apps (scanning, printing, etc.) These are the functions that we desperately need.

    Thanks,
    brs

  8. Connect to Outlook storing using selective select list

    Customer currently stores documents from the tray and uses selective select lists for indexing. However when the customer does a store using connect to outlook they are not presented with that as an option. Since it is not there they are forced to put the email in a tray and store from there to access the select list and extra steps. Having it available right out of outlook would speed up there process and maintain indexing consistency which is very important.

  9. Devellope digital signing of documents with PKI or other certificates

    It's getting more and more a demand from regulation or goverment that the documents can be signed by one or more users. Docuware has no feature to support this.
    We think it's a nessecery thing to be able to sign document this way.

  10. Connect to Outlook: Process Downloaded Attachments through an Import Configuration

    Often "standardised" documents are received in an email inbox. currently there is no seamless method to run these documents through a pre-configured import configuration to identify, split and autoindex the document. Currently Emails, Attachments and/or Emails+Attachments can only be stored in a Tray or Cabinet, thus missing the processing advantage.

    Hello,
    thank you very much for your input. We are going to discuss and evaluate this idea.

    Right now – even if it is not seamless – you can already use the DocuWare Import functionality if you drag and drop Attachments/E-Mails to an Import folder or use the “Store As” function from Outlook.

  11. Import Filter by file name

    Filter file names from import folder. For example i want to exclude file names that contain "TMP".

  12. Add an "Attach from DocuWare" button to the Outlook Ribbon

    In Connect to Outlook, there is no way to search for a document when replying to an e-mail. For example: If I receive an e-mail from a customer requesting a copy of their contract. I click “reply” to this e-mail but the only way to attach the contract is to have a Windows Explorer search tree establish. However, using the Windows Explorer tree view is dependent on me knowing exactly where the contract is located in the folder structure, or which version of the contract is the correct one.

    If I don’t know exactly where to find it in the…

  14. Optinal notification when saving from DocuWare Explorer Client

    When saving with the DocuWare explorer, the notification popup should be optional maybe with a choice of a non untrusive popup like the DocuWare desktop popup.

  15. Add Driveletter to the DocuWare Explorer Client

    If a driveletter could be assigned the DocuWare explorer client, shortcuts could be created and it would be showed as a normal drive, it would be easier for the customers and you could use scripting to transfer files and so on. It would not differ from a normal drive.

  16. Connect 2 Outlook - Ability to open search in Outlook client instead of Outlook

    When using a search in Connect 2 Outlook, the list is opened in Outlook. If many results are shown, and the customer wants a better overview it could be nice to be able to open the search directly in the DocuWare Client so you have the viewer ability and a better overview.

  17. Create info logs

    We can see the import configuration, but we don't know who is using it or where. It would be great to have a running log file that contained details like:
    8/8/2017 - user TGROESCHL enabled "To Doc Tray" import configuration on PC2
    8/9/2017 - user TWEEMS enabled "To File Cabinet" import configuration on PC13

    That would tell me what the pc/server name is and also which user the desktop apps are connected as.
    Could even take it a step further by recording job details, like "8 page document successfully submitted 8/9/2017 14:36:05" or "5 page document failed to submit 8/9/2017…

  18. Connect to Outlook only stores attachments that are 1 level deep

    We often receive emails that are forwarded as attachments and those attached emails also have attachments on them. Connect to Outlook will only store the first level of attachments. We would like to see the ability to store multiple level of attachments.That way the forwarded email and also all attachments on that forwarded email are stored in Outlook.

  19. Automatically update the Desktop Apps

    I have many users that don't always notice when they have pending Desktop Apps updates and end up putting in support tickets for issues the update would resolve. Can you provide an option at least for the updates to install automatically?

  20. connect to outlook

    In Connect to Outlook, when using the "Send and Store" button, the user should be prompted to choose a cabinet. I know you can click near the arrow on the send and store button to get a list of cabinets, but users are just clicking the button and then a storage dialog pops up, but they have no idea which dialog it is or where they are storing to. Would be nice if when you click Send and Store, you get a choice of storage dialogs no matter where you click on the button.
