The Front Office Scanning configuration file is an XML file that contains all of the configuration information used by the Front Office Scanning client. For example, the Front Office Scanning configuration file contains information on scanner settings, OnBase Document Types and Keyword Types, the paths to image templates and E-Forms, and connection information to the OnBase Application Server.

The Front Office Scanning configuration file must be manually created and edited by an administrator. A properly formatted Front Office Scanning configuration file is required to launch the Front Office Scanning client. If the configuration file cannot be opened (e.g., it contains incorrectly formatted XML) or if contains a misspelled or invalid OnBase Document Type, an error message is displayed and the Front Office Scanning client is not launched.

Note:

Case-sensitive passwords and passwords with leading and trailing spaces are now supported. To ensure compatibility with Front Office Scanning, a property was modified to force all values to respect whitespace. As a result of this change, values containing unintended spaces in the configuration file can produce unwanted results. To avoid potential issues with unintended spaces, ensure that all values are entered correctly in your configuration file. For more information on case-sensitive passwords and passwords with leading and trailing spaces, see the System Administration documentation.

Tip:

See The Front Office Scanning Configuration File for a sample Front Office Scanning configuration file.
