Automate tasks with Task Manager

Automate business processes and administrative tasks using the built-in Task Manager.


Task automation provides the ability to schedule repetitive document management tasks using Windows Task Scheduler. For example, you can use Task Manager in Document Locator to automate document importing by monitoring a "watch folder" that receives scanned files originating from an MFP or from another application's output reporting process. A multitude of business processes and administrative tasks can be automated in this way. In combination with Document Locator's built in workflow, entire business procedures can be automated.

Features and examples of Task Manager

  • Supports automatic document importing from a watch folder.
