menu.
3. In the dialog box that opens, specify the name of the station and the name or IP of the computer on which the
Processing Station is installed.
4. Click the Test Connection button to check the connection to this computer.
5. Click OK. The created Processing Station will be added to the Processing Stations node.
Creating a New Workflow
To create a new workflow, select the Workflows node and either click (New Workflow) on the toolbar or select
the corresponding item on the shortcut menu. You can also create new workflows by creating a copy of an existing

menu of the workflow.

each folder. If a new task is created for each folder, in the Create next job after field, specify for
how long the job is formed.
Note: Specify a small time-out (several seconds) if all the files are already in the Input folder when the
workflow is started. If the documents are placed to the Input folder directly from the scanner, the
