Workflow configuration options
When configuring the workflow, the order of the workflow items is displayed on the left of the Configure workflow (Scriptable) window.
This order dynamically changes as you modify the Workflow section options of the profile's Settings pane. If no options are selected, the default order of the workflow items is the following:
- Workflow button: click this to open the profile's Settings pane to modify how the workflow items are arranged.
- Preview Form: shows where the Preview form appears among the workflow items. You can only hide it if both User data entry During scan and Background processing options are enabled.
- Document Service Form: for this item to be shown in the workflow, at least one document service (Debooklet Extender, Form Overlay Extender, and so on) must be enabled. The position of the Document service form(s) in the item list depends on how you configure their order in the Order of Operation dialog. If two or more Document services are added, their location depends on whether you place them before or after the Scanning with Preview SCREEN shown divider line.
- Initialize Form Script: click this button to open the Initialize Form tab. This tab allows you to modify the default code for form initialization.
- Scriptable Form: click this button to open the Form designer tab. It has a Design View and a Code View section. This tab allows you to modify (both graphically and by coding) how the Scriptable form will look like.
- Validate Form Script: click this button to open the Validate Form Data tab. This tab allows you to modify the default code for form validation.
- Store Result Script: click this button to open the Store Workflow Results tab. This tab allows you to modify the default code for storing workflow results.
- Redirect Form: shows the Redirect form among the workflow items. This item always appears at the end of the workflow process and you can avoid it by enabling the Bypass redirect screen option.
You can configure the following Workflow options:
- User data entry: During scan
- Background Processing: Enabled
- Preview Screen: Hide
- Bypass redirect screen: Enabled
- Logoff automatically: Enabled
User data entry: During scan ENABLED
In this configuration scenario, the Preview Form is displayed between the Validate Form Script and Store result Script sections.
Background Processing ENABLED
If this additional setting is configured, the workflow item order does not change, as compared to when only the User data entry: During scan option is enabled. The only difference is that the output document creation and storing operation is performed in the background, therefore the user is not required to wait at the device (until the Redirect screen is displayed). It is recommended to enable the Background processing mode.
Hide Preview Screen ENABLED
With the Hide Preview screen enabled, the Preview Form disappears from among the workflow items.
Bypass redirect screen ENABLED
Enabling the Bypass redirect screen option removes the Redirect form from among the workflow items.
Logoff automatically ENABLED
Enabling this option does not change how the workflow items are arranged.
Only Hide Preview Screen DISABLED
If you disable the Hide Preview Screen option as compared to the Bypass redirect screen ENABLED step, the workflow items are rearranged to have the Preview Form item between the Validate Form Script and Store result Script items.
