The list contains icons to the left of the database name to show the database type (text file Text icon or relational database Database icon) and the database status (activated Activated icon or deactivated Deactivated icon)

You can add a new database, rename and delete an existing inactive database, and set a database to active in order to be used within the Kofax Transformation Modules workflow. You can select multiple databases from the list in order to delete, activate or deactivate and to export them. For multiple selection databases that have an database status other than Ready or Error are ignored when performing the selected command.

Add

The menu is not available for databases that have a database status other than Ready or Error.
