  1. 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

  2. Provide dark mode for all DocuWare client applications

    Especially, if dark mode is activated in Windows 10 it would be really great to be able to switch all DocuWare client applications to dark mode as well.

  4. Allow Docuware to scan in "actual paper size"... such as the applications. They are legal size. It cuts off part of it once uploaded

    Consider page size. Applications are legal size

  5. 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.

  6. Allow parallel connections to multiple DocuWare Cloud-Systems within the Local Data Connector.

    Currently it is only possible to establish multiple connections between one DocuWare Cloud-Systems und multiple databases. Connecting multiple DocuWare Cloud-Systems with one or more databases in parallel is not possible right now.

  7. Split document if a document is rotated 180 degrees

    As an alternative to Barcodes, if a page is rotated 180 degrees it should be split.

  8. 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.

  9. Give us the option to ignore embedded PDF textshots

    Occasionally we might come across PDF documents that have embedded textshot information that is incorrect or incomplete eg, when a document is OCR'd at an MFP or printed from Crystal Reports to DocuWare Printer. OCR will always be skipped in this case. We should have the option in the import/printer configurations to OCR the document and generate a textshot even if the PDF already contains one.

  12. 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

  13. 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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. To review the file size of scanned images before uploading...

    I encounter after scanning my images, that I am guessing how big my file size is. I have guessed wrong on many occasions and I then get an error "reached my maximum file size and cannot exceed 300,000 kb." There should be option that I can review how big my file size of the scanned images before hitting the upload button. That way I am not wasting my time of re-scanning the documents again.

  18. ability to add date/time stamp automatically when scanning.

    The ability to automatically put date/time stamp on docs while scanning was available in DW desktop versions but is not currently available in the web version. Would be extremely useful when scanning a large document that needs a date stamp on it (legal documents) with out having to stamp individual pages.

  19. Enable OCR for automatic recognition of non-PDF documents in DW Import

    When creating a new Import configuration you can use OCR for setting up automatic recognition as well as splitting and indexing, but only on PDFs. Since users use Import for more than just PDFs it would be great if that was available, since DocuWare routinely OCR's a stunning number of document types in other areas of the application (ie. point-and-click indexing, full-text search indexing...)
