Changing the Processing Order for Import Folders
Scan jobs are processed first by the priority assigned to the import folder, and then by the order
the import folders are listed on the Folder Settings tab in the Administrator window. You can
move import folders up or down in the list to change the order in which files are processed. If the
folder order needs to be modified after the initial setup, we recommend that you wait until a time
when no jobs are processing before changing the folder order.
To move an import folder up or down in the list, do the following:
1. Open Scan Administrator on the server or workstation where Scan was installed.
2. Select the Folder Settings tab.
3. Select the import folder to move in the list.
4. Click Up or Down to move the folder to the appropriate position in the list.
5. Click Save to save your changes.
Note: If you use the Limit Capture option in General Settings, your ability to change the
priority of specific batch jobs is reduced. For best results when using this option, reserve the
top import folder in the priority list for rush jobs. If you apply the High priority setting for this
folder, jobs placed in it will be captured and processed first.
Removing an Import Folder
The following procedure disables Scan processing for a selected import folder. It does not
physically remove the folder from the server. To remove a folder from the server, use Windows
Explorer.
Note: Before removing a folder, verify that it is empty and that all Scan jobs from it have
been captured and processed.
To remove an import folder from Scan processing, do the following:
1. Open Scan Administrator on the server or workstation where Scan was installed.
2. Select the Folder Settings tab.
3. In the folder list on the left, select the import folder to remove.
4. Click Remove. A message asking if you want to delete the folder displays.
5. Click OK.
Setting Scan Defaults
Scan continually monitors the import folders and starts a new Scan job whenever a new scanned
file is detected. The General Settings tab in the Administrator window allows you to control how
often Scan checks for new files and how many files Scan captures at once. The settings selected
on this window apply to all import folders.
Note: The License Settings section displays the license information for your installation of
Scan. There are no settings to modify in this section.
