Workflow Services
To be able to run and to have access to local files as well as to files available on other
computers in your network, PlanetPress Workflow applications and services must identify
themselves using a local or network account.
The first time you start the PlanetPress Workflow Configuration program, the application
automatically asks you to choose an account (see below).
You can also manually start this procedure from the PlanetPress Workflow Tools by following
this procedure: click on the Tools tab in PlanetPress Workflow Ribbon, then click Configure
Services.
Set the PlanetPress Workflow applications permissions as required:
l
Local System account: Select to run all the PlanetPress Workflow Services (including
PlanetPress Workflow, PlanetPress Fax, and PlanetPress Image) under the Local
System account. The Local System account is distinct from the Administrator account. It
requires no user name or password, and its privileges may exceed those of the user
currently logged in. Running under this account rather than a user account prevents
problems that may arise if the user lacks a permission the service requires. If a
configuration relies on any resources mapped to a particular user, such as mapped
network drives or shared printers, they are unavailable. It is recommended that you create
a configuration for a particular user. Clear the Local System account checkbox to run all
the PlanetPress Workflow Services under the account you specify. Use the options that
become available when you clear Local System account to enter the account
information—you must enter a valid user name and password to use Microsoft Outlook as
your email client for Email input and Send email output tasks.
l
This Account: Provide a domain, user name and password to use instead of the Local
System Account.
l
Browse: Opens the default Windows dialog for selecting users/groups/etc. from a
domain.
l
User: Enter the name of the user account.
l
Password: Enter the password for the user account you specified in the user name
box.
l
Confirm password: Enter the password you entered in the Password box.
