User Data
Sometimes you need more information from your users who submit jobs to the Document Server. For
example:
•
What account should this job be billed to?
•
What is your department number?
•
What is the loan amount?
The scripts you have written up to now don't have any way to communicate with the user. User data is
the way to gather additional information (also called metadata) from your users.
When you write the script, you specify the questions to ask. When accessing a profile the user is
prompted with the questions you included in your script. You can then use the answers in your script.
When a user selects a profile with user data from Select'N'Send or Print'N'Send, a dialog displays all
the user data questions at once.
