XBOUND Preparation

This stand-alone application records the time spent preparing documents for processing. That preparation might include:

XBOUND Preparation can also create the documents in the XBOUND system and record which user performed the work.

Start the XBOUND Preparation application by selecting Start menu > All Programs > ReadSoft > ReadSoft XBOUND Preparation.

Note: The configuration of the Prepare documents process step controls some of the behavior and functionality. Additional options (press F12 to access them) are also selectable from the application.

The user interface can include the following:

Start / Stop

Starts or stops the XBOUND session.

Pause

Pauses the session when you temporarily leave your workstation, for example.

Cancel

Deletes the current document or sets a cancellation flag on it, depending on whether Clicking 'Cancel' deletes documents instead of setting cancellation flag is selected in the Document Preparation settings.

When are items with a cancellation flag actually deleted? This depends on how your XBOUND process is set up. Normally you would use a process rule to get documents with the cancellation flag (see Specifying which documents to route to a process step) and delete and/or or export them.

 

Document code

Scan or input the ID for the documents you are preparing.

User code

Scan or input your employee ID.

Process step code

If prompted to do so, select a client, process, and process step in the boxes.

Alternatively, key in that information using the delimiter specified in the XBOUND Preparation Options dialog.

For example, if the delimiter is a slash (/), then the process step would be specified by typing ClientName/ProcessName/ProcessStepName.

 

Clear

Clears (resets) the input fields.

Enter

Submits the data provided in the input fields.
