Add ability to point data exports to multiple file locations.
We have multiple data exports running. It would be easier to manage if I could have the exports go to different folders to keep the reports separated by report type. It is currently limited to one folder.
1 voteThank you for your contribution. Your idea is already available.
Select an "Export Configuration", choose an "Output Location" and schedule the export.
The do the same for the next "Export configuration".

Allow scheduling for the User Synchronization app
For on-premise, the AD synchronization can happen on a schedule. I would expect the desktop app for 7 Cloud to have the same capability, but sadly it doesn't. My customers now have to manually run the sync on a daily basis. They don't love that.
2 votesThank you for your contribution. You can schedule the application to run on a schedule using the Windows Task Scheduler.

Smart Connect
Within Smart Connect I need to be able to use it with a Crystal Report Viewer in SAGE. The Invoice number is in a field called Posting Comments. If the user clicks on the field I need to be able to pull the invoice number between the :'s. The editor icon is grayed out. It looks like I should be able to do it!
This is important because the Docuware Sales Pitch to Accounting showed several instances of searching by invoice number. The CFO made the decision to purchase based on that ability.2 votes -
Make DW scanning faster. Each user could scan 1000 pages a day, not anymore.
We use to scan 1000 pages a day with the thick client. Now with the new Web Client each user is lucky to scan 200 pages a day. Is there anyway to scan quicker? We feel like we have regressed instead of progressing. We do not like the DW Web Client.
1 voteHello,
we are constantly working on a way to improve the performance of DocuWare Desktop and its scan possibilites. In the recent version and also in the upcoming version we also implemented additional functions to process much more than 200 pages a day.Just as a rough benchmark: Without using OCR, DocuWare is able to scan up to 100 pages a minute. Of course the performance is always dependent of each system and its settings.

Connect to Mail
Connect to Mail is able to store only attached documents like a PDF invoice included into the corresponding e-mail. There is a problem with signature and images in relation with the e-mail because they are considered like attached documents too. Result is a document with several pages and the only needed is the Invoice PDF

desktop apps via MS system center
for users that do not have admin access have a package/msi file to allow install/upgrade via MS system center or other similar software
1 voteWe have not tried MS System Center, but this should be possible with using the silent installation mode. Have a look here: http://go.docuware.com/ClientSetupCmd
If you detect, that it is not working in your setup, please come back to us. We will be happy to help you.

Print Documents in FIFO Method
Today when documents are printed with DocuWare Printer, there will be instances where a large document is printed first follow by some small documents. The small ones will make to the tray first before the large ones, even if the large one was printed first. If you are dealing with critical documents where the sequence is very important, the current printing method breaks the sequence.
We want to be able to have an option in DocuWare printer where we can configure such method. The method FIFO (first-in/first-out). This way the ones that were printed first will get to the tray…
1 voteDue to having the best performance, the documents are processed in parallel. After all documents are processed, the order in the basket will be the same as they were printed before. Even if a smaller document overtakes the bigger one during the process, the bigger one will be presented in the end in the document tray before the smaller one. This was done in version 6.7. See here: http://help.docuware.com/en/#b57865t61352n70304

Tie the readout areas to the anchors in Import/Scan templates
It appears that Anchors assigned to Readout Areas only determine the page that the Readout Area is on. I think it would be better if the Readout Area assigned to an Anchor moved with the Anchor. In this way changes in the size or placement of the document would not cause a loss of data due to the Readout area capturing the wrong area of a page.
1 voteYou can tie read out areas to anchors. If the anchor is found on a different page, the read out area is also moved to the different page.

Allow Connect to Outlook to be configured to import from sub-folders
Connect to Outlook should have the ability to also read from folders below the source folder identified in the configuration. For example, an attorney has a client folder with sub-folders below the top level client folder. The sub-folders contain the emails associated with the various matters that they are working on for the client.

Add document identification to DWImport
Please think about adding the identification option in Docuware Import.
When printing documents, you have the ability to identify a document based on a bar code or text value and then assign it to a template to then determine what zone you will scrape data for indexing. In dwimport you do not have this so each template needs its own import job. We get around this by scanning or dropping electronic pdf's to the DWPrinter watch folder and then identifying the document based on the identification tab. It works perfectly so I assume it's using the same exact technology. No…2 votesThis is available with the version 6.9.

Choose which OCR Settings Template is used in an Import Configuration
We can create new templates or modify existing templates for accuracy, speed, language, dot matrix, etc. I would like to be able to specify which template is used in a particular Import job, rather than assigning permissions to users. That way we are sure to get the best results possible regardless of other factors.

Give me a scanner button, and make it easy to find and use.
Scanning but into Docuware instead of windows explorer.
1 voteThanks for your idea. There is already a scan button inside the document tray, which opens the Desktop Scanner.
If this is not sufficient, please explain the idea in more detail.

Create GUI For Enabling Desktop Logging
When on phone support with Docuware technicians often need to enable logging for the Desktop Apps. Some technicians are faster than others but takes around 10-20 minutes as the technician does a backup and changes the many.config files in notepad necessary to enable logging. Additionally they fight with UAC which protects files in Program Files. Additional time is then taken to revert the desktop apps to not log. It's very time consuming for the technician and customer for something that could be as simple as checking some boxes and specifying a path in a GUI. Please consider adding this functionality…
1 voteThere is already a tool called Log Collector, which will remove the hassle from editing several files.

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