Use case example

This use case scenario presents a way for configuring the SMTP Mail connector of ShareScan to use Data Publishing with the values derived from the Forms Processing Extender.

  1. Start the ShareScan Administration Console.
  2. Start the Forms Processing Extender.
  3. Open the form you want to use.
  4. Create three anchors on the document, as well as zones for the To, From, Program, and Student ID fields.
  5. Save your changes.
  6. Navigate to the Data Publishing Mapper, and map the To, From, Program, and Student ID fields to the SMTP Mail connector.
  7. Close the Data Publishing Mapper.
  8. Navigate to the Logon/SMTP tab of the Properties menu of the SMTP Mail connector profile you want to use. Set the Logon and SMTP server options.This will allow the connector to use the relevant Data Publishing values from the From field.
  9. Configure the Sending options tab of the connector to utilize the $$SUBJECT$$ and $$NOTE$$ tokens (Student ID and Program Data Publishing keys).
  10. Save the changes you made to the connector profile.
  11. Send the document through the SMTP Mail connector. The validation screen of the Forms Processing Extender will display the correct values.
    • The From form of the connector should also automatically recognize the relevant value based on Data Publishing.
    • The Send form will display the relevant, configured To, Subject and Notes values.
