Personalized Workflows

The eCopy Personalized Workflows is a user-login based wizard-like web application that enables end-users to create customized 'send-to-folder' workflows. It provides an alternative way for configuring various Quick Connect connector workflows, not requiring end-users to install eCopy ShareScan Administration Console on their computers. Using a visual interface with button-like controls, users can easily compile a Quick Connect connector workflow by simply modifying the administrator- preconfigured workflow elements.

Configuring a Personalized Workflow

Session Logon must be enabled for the Personalized Workflow to be functional. Two types of users can use these preconfigured workflows:

  • The logged-in user who created the personalized workflow
  • The user with whom the personalized workflow is shared via Active Directory security group or by other users

Observe the following steps to configure a basic personalized Quick Connect workflow:

  1. In the Administration Console, select the Quick Connect connector in the Connector tab of the Configure Connectors pane.
