Docket Scan Import
You can import dockets into PalletWatch by scanning. This is where PalletWatch uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition). The user would use their scanner to scan pallet dockets to a PDF file. You will need to get an email address from PalletWatch so that the files can be emailed from the scanner to PalletWatch. The number of dockets to be scanned in one file should be limited to 20.
PalletWatch will automatically import the docket scans and they will then be available for Review.
To review scanned dockets please do the following:
- Go to Data/Imports.
- Click on the Docket Scans tab.
- The file will display along with a Review button. There is also a Download button where you can download the file if you want.
- The file may not immediately display as the OCR does its work.
- Once the file is available to review a Review button will appear against each docket.
- When you click on the Review button the screen will display a Create Docket form alongside the scanned PDF docket.
- There is an Action box at the top of the screen where you can Review, Ignore or Attach to Docket. It also shows you the Scan Confidence.
- You should have a look at the fields in the Create Docket form and enter or change any that don't match the PDF.
- Once you are satisfied you can click on the Accept button and on the right of the screen under the Pages column will appear the docket numbers. These docket numbers have a link so that when you click on it you will be taken to the Dockets screen. You will see that there is a note which indicates that the PDF file has been saved against the docket.
