Known issues, limitations, solutions
ISISScan panel does not work without OpenText libraries
Datacap no longer supports scanning with ISIS interface. So, you use only TWAIN interface for scanning.
Image rotation issue with Daeja virtual Viewer
Some of the rotated scanned TIFF images are not remained same as before, after they are reopened in batch on Hold. This issue remains same even after switching to and from pages in Datacap Navigator with Daeja Virtual Viewer. This problem occurs from Daeja side because IBM Content Navigator has updated latest Daeja version.

Delete Batches button in TMWeb Job Monitor does not delete all batches
When the Job Monitor page contains one or more batches having child batches (for example, Main Job/Fixup Job), you click Delete Batches button to delete that does not delete all batches displayed on Job Monitor when the Parent batch is listed above its Child batch.
Workaround: You can change the Batch column sorting order with displaying the Child batches above the Parent batch.
Pages are not refreshed in batch in Verify task
When you open a batch in Verify task in Navigator, after clicking Next page or Previous page button, Image Viewer might show the previous cached image instead of the current page images in the batch.
Workaround: In the IBM Content Naviagator admin console, go to the Daeja ViewONE settings and select the server tab. Here, add the entry 'docidprototype' and set it to '${originaldocid}'. Restart the server.
