By default, your Front Office Scanning scanning solution is configured to allow you to scan/create one document at a time and then assign it to a Document Type.

However, you can configure your Front Office Scanning solution to use batch scanning. Batch scanning allows you to scan all pages of all documents associated with the selected Data Set at once and then organize them into individual documents in the Front Office Scanning client.

Note:

Batch scanning is NOT the ability to import documents scanned/created into a batch of an OnBase scan queue. Front Office Scanning does offer the ability to upload a document as a batch of a scan queue; this feature is controlled at the Document Type level. For more information, see Configuring Documents to Be Uploaded as a Batch of a Scan Queue.

To enable batch scanning:

  1. In the Front Office Scanning configuration file, locate the ScanOptions element.
  2. Within the ScanOptions element, locate the batchscan setting. If this value is not present, add it to the ScanOptions element.
  3. Set the batchscan setting to true. For example: batchscan="true"
    Tip:

    For more information on the Front Office Scanning configuration file's ScanOptions element and its settings, including the batchscan setting, see The ScanOptions Element.

  4. Save and close the configuration file.
