Restrictions and limitations

For the supported DocuWare server versions, consult the Technical Specification.

Communication Type has three options. Windows client, Web services and .Net API. The .NET API connection type works with DocuWare server 6.5 or higher, and starting with DocuWare server 6.9 it is the only supported connection type.

For a proper operation of the component you should switch on the Allow service to interact with desktop option in the component service properties.

The component does not support Version management functionality of the DocuWare server version 6. This functionality, when switched on in the cabinet, adds Version number, Version status and Change comments fields into a list of the cabinet fields. The component cannot work with these fields; hence, please do not use them.

When working with the fields of the numeric type, the component can proceed values of the integer type only; this type has the following limits: from -2147483639 to 2147483639.

The Web services connection type does not support work with baskets.

The component supports only user-defined fields in the file cabinet.

The Windows client connection type does not support workflows, run as an user account. To use this type you should run the workflow server as the LocalSystem account. If you want to use user accounts in your workflow, please use Web services connection type.

For a proper operation of the component all DocuWare clients must be restarted on the system with the workflow server, when the DocuWare server settings have been changed.
