Creating a Session: Standard Wizard

A session contains configuration information that specifies how Quick Fields 8 should handle documents. You can create a session using a number of different methods, one of which is using the standard wizard.

The standard wizard is designed for users who are generally familiar with creating a session but prefer a moderate amount of help. It guides you through the process of configuring most, but not all, session settings, such as selecting (but not configuring) a scan source, creating a document class (excluding the configuration of sample images), session permissions, selecting how unidentified documents should be handled, and specifying when processed documents should be sent to the repository. Settings that are not defined in the wizard should be manually configured once the session is created.

Tip: After using the standard wizard while you become accustomed to the settings in Quick Fields, you may want to use a different method to speed up the session creation process.
