Workflow

A workflow consists of a series of tasks, defines a way to process documents, and is associated with only one document hierarchy.

Some tasks require operator intervention, where others run automatically. A workflow job consists of a series of tasks and defines a way to process a particular batch of documents. Because the tasks can be reused in multiple jobs, you can add as many jobs as you need to handle your processing scenarios.

For example, your process might include several input channels, such as scan, fax, and email, for the same types of documents. In a single application, you can construct three workflow jobs, one for each input channel, and have each job share the tasks for recognition, data extraction, and export.
