End of task detection
The End of task detection options allow you to determine how the
stream of scanned images will be broken up in separate tasks.
Time-out
If the contents of a watched folder do not change for a certain time,
IRISDocument Server will start converting all documents in that
folder as a single task.
File detection
When processing subfolders, you can drop an end of task file
(eod.inf) in a watched folder. As soon as IRISDocument Server
encounters the file, it will know the task is completed and it will
start the next one. All documents up to the eod file will be
processed as part of a single task. Note: make sure to arrange you
documents in the right order up to each eod file. Otherwise your
output documents will be processed incorrectly.
For each task indicated by an end of task file, IRISDocument Server
creates a run file in the image folder, to indicate to the user that this
specific task is being processed.
All images for which a run file exists are ignored as the folder
monitoring continues. This way, the images do not need to be
removed from the source image folder.
Note, however, that the End of task detection settings are not the
only way to organize a stream of scanned documents. There are also
specific document separation options to select. Refer to the section
Document Separation to learn more.
