Incoming File/Fax Q

Incoming File/Fax Q Introduction

The Incoming File/Fax Q allows for viewing/indexing of incoming faxes. Within the module, a file can be previewed or opened, tasks generated, file sent to a new user or department, or indexed directly within the queue or WebScan. This module has recently been updated to now include additional information when opening the file. When a user opens the file, they will see a summary of that document. The summary includes the File ID, Date and Time it was created in the queue, the Sender’s fax number, and the status. When a user hovers over this information, a set of shortcut icons are displayed. The icons will be reviewed in the Documentation section. The Incoming File/Fax Q is a feature that can be added or upgraded for an additional cost.
