Publishing a Batch Class

When finished setting up or editing a batch class, you must publish it. Publishing your batch class ensures it is complete and ready to use to scan or import documents.

You cannot create batches based on a batch class until it is successfully published without errors. Before publishing a batch class, use the Validate function to identify errors or warnings that need to be resolved.

  1. On the Home tab, in the Batch Class group, click Publish.

    The Publish window appears.

  2. On the Publish window, select one or more batch classes. Click Select All to select all batch classes on the list.
  3. Select the Cancel Publish / Validate operation if error occurs check box to automatically cancel the Validate or Publish operation if an error occurs. In this situation, a message appears to indicate how many batch classes are published successfully prior to the error.
  4. Before publishing the batch classes, validate them to identify any issues that need resolution.
    1. Click Validate.

      The Validate process runs stringent checks on your batch class selections. If you are validating multiple batch classes, a progress bar appears. The validation results appear in the Results box.

    2. If errors or warnings appear in the Results box, click Close to fix or review the affected settings.

      • Errors are generated for settings that prevent successful processing of a batch. You cannot publish the batch class until these settings are fixed.
      • Warnings are generated for settings that could cause a problem, but they do not prevent you from publishing the batch class. Check the settings to ensure they are valid.

      Tip You can copy the contents of the Results box into a text or document file.
    3. If no issues are detected, proceed to the next step.
  5. Optionally, you can click Versions to view the Version History for a selected batch class to select a different version to publish. You can also delete a batch class or compare it to another version. For details, see the Version History Window help topic.
  6. Publish your batch classes.
    1. Click Publish.

      The Publish process runs stringent checks on your batch class selections. If you are publishing multiple batch classes, a progress bar appears. The publishing process results appear in the Results box.

  7. Repeat the preceding steps until the Publish process is error-free.
