Setting up Mobile Capture

Setting up  Mobile Capture includes the following administrative tasks.

Adding the mobile connector

You can add a mobile connector by using Server Administrator > Connectors after activating the mobile connector license.

To add a mobile connector

  1. Start the Server Administrator.

  2. Expand the Server Administrator tree, if necessary.

  3. Right-click Connectors. The New Connector shortcut menu appears.

  4. Select New Connector > Mobile. The Create New Mobile Connector wizard appears.

  5. Specify the server address, if necessary.

  6. Click Next.

  7. Type a mobile connector name in the Name box, if necessary.

  8. Click Next. The Congratulations! message appears.

  9. Click Finish. The mobile connector appears in the details pane.

Configuring the mobile connector

You can configure the mobile connector by using the Mobile Connector Properties dialog box.

To configure the mobile connector

  1. Select Connectors on the Server Administrator tree, if necessary.

  2. Double-click the mobile connector in the Connectors details pane. The Mobile Connector Properties dialog box appears.

  3. Select the Configuration tab.

See the Mobile Connector Properties > Configuration dialog box example below.

  1. Specify the Administrative username and password provided by Upland AccuRoute in the appropriate boxes.

  2. Specify a connector code in the Connector Code box. The connector code created by an Administrator must be unique and alphanumeric. Alpha characters appear in upper case, but are not case-sensitive to the user community.

Although there is no length restriction, Upland AccuRoute recommends creating a connector code that is short and easy to remember by users.

Note: Administrators can create  multiple mobile connectors. Each connector must have its own unique code. This enables Administrators to group users to a specific connector and document workflow(s). For example, mobile connectors could be set up for different segments of an organization like Sales, Human Resources, Legal, and Finance. This is an optional configuration and is not required. One mobile connector can be used for all mobile users.

  1. Select any or all workflow types based on your company’s document capture requirements.

    • Enable Capture to MyFiles (Automatically configured with the Server installation, no additional configuration required)

    • Enable Capture to Fax (Requires Fax configuration)

    • Enable Capture to Public Embedded Directives also known as Public Distributions (Requires Embedded Directives configuration)

Note: Fax and Embedded Directives configurations must be completed before configuring the mobile connector.

  1. If Enable Capture to Fax is selected, complete the following steps (optional) .

    • Select the Sender Lookup tab.

    • Add the LDAP properties.

Refer to the Help topic related to the type of fax connector you are using for additional information about Sender Lookups; for example, Exchange, SMTP, and HP LAN Fax. There are other connectors that support Sender Lookups.

Note: The Sender Lookup feature is used to look up and apply information about the sender to fax cover pages.

  1. If Enable Capture to Public Embedded Directive is selected, complete the following steps.

    • Click Add. The Select Embedded Directive dialog box appears.

    • Click Find.

      • Use the Criteria check boxes at the top of the Select Embedded Directive dialog box to filter the embedded directives, if necessary.

    • Click Select. The Embedded Directive appears in the Title area.
