Configuring/Starting Job Flow
Job flow is a feature for executing a series of registered actions.
A job flow operates on documents stored in a mailbox, and starts in either of the
following ways: 1) manually or automatically start a job flow when a document is stored
in a mailbox, or 2) select a job flow to act on documents stored in a mailbox manually.
To automatically start a job flow, you must make a link with a mailbox and a job flow
sheet in advance. Documents are automatically processed with the job flow sheet when
they are stored in the linked mailbox.
Important • If the Authentication feature is not used, a job flow created in [Send from Mailbox] can only
be used/edited/duplicated/deleted through the mailbox where the job flow is created. This
type of job flow is not displayed on the [Job Flow Sheets] screen. When using the
Authentication feature, job flows whose owners are authenticated are displayed on the [Job
Flow Sheets] screen.
Features that can be registered are listed below.
