General

Allow participation in product improvement: Select this option to participate in product improvement.

Print via ELOprintTool (Windows): Enable this option to print documents with the ELOprintTool.

Use as scan method: Select which scan method to use.

Please note: The ELOscanTool can only be used under Microsoft Windows and requires a 32-bit TWAIN driver.

Set as fax printer: To send a document as a fax, the document must be sent to a fax printer that processes the digital data and sends it to the recipient. Use this setting to specify which fax printer to use.

Barcode serial number: Enter a valid barcode serial number here if you want to use the barcode function at your workstation.

Information: This setting is only available to administrators with the rights Main administrator and/or Edit user data.

Please note: Barcode serial numbers are unique to each workstation and cannot be used multiple times.

Script event when using a handheld barcode scanner: If the Script event when using a handheld barcode scanner is enabled, the ELO Java Client sends a corresponding script event as soon as a handheld barcode scanner is recognized.

Activate script debugger for Eclipse: Select the Activate script debugger for Eclipse option to activate the script debugger for internal scripts. This will disable the internal script debugger (CTRL+ALT+D).

Compile and save scripts: If this option is enabled, ELO compiles new scripts initially and then saves them locally. This improves the performance of the client on start. However, doing so means that you can no longer call the debugger. Changes to scripts are detected automatically.

Always cache script files: If this option is enabled, script files are always stored in the cache. This also applies if the Clear document cache on shutdown option is enabled. This improves the performance of the client on start.

Enable HTTP Automation Interface: Selecting the Enable HTTP Automation Interface option allows you to call scripting functions starting with the prefix http via the HTTP Automation Interface. To do so, you need to enter the corresponding port number in the Server port field.

The syntax must have the following format:

http://<server>:<port>/scripts/<script name>/?p1=<parameter value1>&p2=<parameter value2>

Server port: To call script functions via the HTTP Automation Interface, you need to enter the corresponding port number in the Port field.

Create a link to the entry in the ELO Web Client when sending an ELO link: If this option is enabled, a web link to the entry is embedded in the e-mail when sending an ELO link. This web link can also be used as an ELO link in the ELO Web Client.

Web Client URL: For the additional web link when sending an ELO link (see above) to work, you need to enter the ELO Web Client URL to the Web Client URL field.

Add references to full text database: If this option is enabled, references are included when adding to the full text database.

Display and refresh

Cache refresh interval in seconds: Use this option to set the refresh interval of the repository. Work areas and settings are updated at this interval.

Limit display in large folders: If this option is enabled, the folders entered in the Object IDs field are not fully loaded during a "Go to" action. Instead, only the respective entry is loaded.

Object IDs: In this field, enter the object IDs of the folders that you do not want to be affected by the Limit display of large folders option.

Storage duration of thumbnails in the cache: The ELO Java Client stores the created thumbnails to a local cache. In this area, you specify when to delete the cache. Choose from the following options:

• Delete when closing ELO
• Delete after 30 days
• Never delete

Clear document cache on shutdown: If the Clear document cache on shutdown option is enabled, the temporary file folder will be emptied when you close the ELO Java Client.

Maximum number of documents in the In use work area: In this area, you specify how many documents can be checked out at the same time. This prevents too many external applications from being started since this could impact system performance. The default value is 20.

Maximum number of pages in OCR preprocessing: Use the value in the Maximum number of pages in the OCR preprocessing field to specify the maximum number of pages per document to be evaluated during OCR preprocessing. The default value is 20.

Start search immediately when clicking a search favorite: The Search favorites function on the Search tab enables you to save search favorites and use them repeatedly. Select the Start immediately when clicking a search favorite option to immediately start the search when clicking a search favorite. If this option is disabled, the search favorite is added without starting the search.

Information: The sort order of the search results always applies to the currently selected page.

Log file

The log file contains the automatic protocol of all or certain processes of an application.

You can make the following settings for the log file:

Write log file: Select this option to write a log file.

Open log file: Open the log file for viewing.

Send log file: Attach a log file as a .txt file to an e-mail.

Log file path: Define the storage location for the log file.

Information level: Define how detailed you want the information in the log file to be (default, script development, debug, or network debug).

Information: You can only make changes to the log file if there is no logger entry in the registry.

Date formats

Possible date and time formats: Click this link to show the variables for the configuration of the date and time formats.

Preview: The Preview field shows what the date format would look like with the current settings.

Format for date and time entries: Specify the format for the date and time entries here. The format used is displayed as an example in the Preview field. The default setting is Use standard Java date formats.

Please note: If nothing is displayed in the Preview display field, the date entries will not be displayed in the client either.

Date format: If you have selected the User-defined option, you can choose a predefined date format in the Date format field or generate your own date format from the variables displayed under Date and time format options.

Time: If you have selected the User-defined option, you can choose a predefined time format in the Time field or generate your own time format from the variables displayed under Date and time format options.

Date format that should also be accepted for entries in ELO: If you have selected the User-defined option, you can select or create an additional date format that is also valid in ELO in the Date format that should also be accepted for entries in ELO field.

Replace date in tables with "Yesterday", "Today", and "Tomorrow" as required: Select this option to replace the date with Yesterday, Today, or Tomorrow as appropriate.

First weekday in the calendar: Use the drop-down menu to set the first day of the calendar week in ELO. The default value is Monday.

Number formats

Separator for number entries: Specify the separators used for numbers here. The default setting is Use standard Java separators.

Thousands separator: If you have selected the User-defined option, you can enter a separator to mark numbers higher than one thousand in the Thousands separator field.

Decimal separator: If you have selected the User-defined option, you can enter a separator for numbers with decimal places in the Decimal separator field.

Show or hide work areas

You can hide or show the Intray, Clipboard, Tasks, In use, and Search work areas with this option.

Folder for document templates

Path: Define in which folder the document templates will be stored in ELO.

OCR (text recognition)

OCR recognition: Specify here whether you want to perform OCR in fast or detailed (but slower) mode.

Filter: Use the Filter field to filter the Available languages column. The column is refreshed as soon as you enter a character.

Reset filters: Click the Reset filters button to delete the current filter term from the Filter field. All available languages are displayed.

Available languages: From the list on the left, select the languages for text recognition that will be used to analyze the documents in ELO.

Information: The OCR service and languages are only available if an OCR instance has been installed.

Selected languages: In the Selected languages column, you can see which languages have been selected for text recognition.
