specific type within this category is Barcode cover page jobs, where barcode cover pages are
used to identify which workflow to carry out.
Normal job: Set starting time and specify or create the Workflow to be run. If you select
‘Do not start now’ use the Activate button in the Batch Manager to start it.
Job types available in OmniPage Professional only:
Barcode cover page job: This is a special type of folder watching job (see below). It
monitors a folder for incoming barcode pages, then processes subsequently incoming
images with the workflow identified by the barcode. For details, see Barcode
processing later in this chapter.
Folder watching job: Select this job type and browse to the folder(s) to be watched for
incoming image files.
Outlook mailbox watching job: This job watches an Outlook e-mail inbox for incoming
image attachments of a specified type.
Lotus Notes mailbox watching job: Same as above, but a Lotus Notes inbox is watched.
Name your job and click Next.
The next panel shows Start and Stop Options. Specify Start and End Time, set whether input
files are to be deleted or saved when the job is completed. If you have a job requiring user
interaction, choose whether to allow it or not with the checkmark Run job without any
prompts. This lets you run such jobs in two ways, avoiding the need to create two jobs. If you
plan to be at the computer as the job runs, de-select the checkmark. If you want to run the job
without being present, select the checkmark. Then only automatic image enhancement will
run, auto-zoning will replace manual zoning and proofing is skipped. In this case you must
ensure that the input and saving file sets and locations are pre-defined.
In OmniPage Professional you can set a recurrency pattern and request e-mail notification
when the job is completed.
From the next panel onwards, you can construct your job (except for barcode cover page jobs)
as you normally do with Workflows. Set your starting point (Fresh Start or Existing
Workflows) and proceed as described in the Workflows topic.
