Create a variant

Create variants when the same sender sends documents with different layouts, for example.

Examples of when to do this.

Example 1 – no variant needed

A sender has one kind of document.

  1. Set Sender and Sender number to values that you use in your financial system to identify this sender.
    Example: Leaf Organs Corp, 26369842.
  2. Either leave Description blank, or set it to something useful for Kofax ReadSoft Entrance users, such as Leaf Organs Corp.

    Kofax ReadSoft Entrance will use one document definition for this sender.

Example 2 – create a variant

A sender has two kinds of documents, and you always pay to the same sender account.

  1. Set Sender and Sender number to values that you use in your financial system to identify this sender.
    Example: Leaf Organs Corp, 26369843.
  2. Set Description to a different value for each kind of document. Example: Eastern Div. and Western Div.
    Kofax ReadSoft Entrance will use two document definitions for this sender.

Use this procedure during the verification process

  1. Specify the sender, if the selected one is not correct.
    If sender number and description are not displayed, and you cannot change the supplier, see other instructions.
  2. Type a description in the Description box. This is important because it is the only thing used to distinguish variants from each other.
  3. When the document is ready to be approved, click Approve to save the new document definition, or variant, to the database.
