Connection and sending settings

To send images to FlexiCapture, set up a connection with the Application Server. For more information, see FlexiCapture server setup. Without a connection, you can still photograph documents and preprocess the images, and set up the connection and send the images later. To connect to the Application Server, specify the following:
  • The URL of the server
  • The name of your company (tenant)
  • A user name and a password
To send documents, first specify the project and batch type to send them to. If most of your documents share the same document type, you can also specify that type. This step is optional, because you can set each document’s type later, and any document sent without a type is assigned one when it is processed on the server. If you forget a required setting, the app prompts you for it when you try to send the documents.

Capture documents

1

Photograph the first page

Take a picture of the first page of a document. You can improve the image with the in-app tools: rotate and crop it, apply color filters, or convert it to black-and-white to reduce its size.
To crop each image automatically, enable the Enable automatic cropping option in the app’s settings.
2

Save the page

Save the page image. For a multi-page document, open the document’s menu, tap Add, and repeat the previous step for each page.
3

Assign a document type

Optionally, select the document’s type. If you don’t, its type is set to the default Unidentified document type when the document is sent, and determined when a Document Definition is applied to it on the server.
4

Send the document

Tap the Send button to send the document to ABBYY FlexiCapture. If you forget a required setting, the app prompts you for it. To avoid entering the same settings repeatedly, save the settings you used as defaults.
Sent documents have the Sent status in the document list. Documents that have not been sent have the Not sent yet status and are marked in red, making them easy to spot.
