3. After selecting the appropriate filters, you need to drag and drop the files that you want to add to PaperSave.

 

Note:

If the current Workflow User is set as Out of Office, then that user will not be allowed to drag and drop the Workflow Items in PaperSave Web Workflow Page.
If you have selected all the necessary filters from Filter drop-down list for Workflow 1.0 and or Workflow 2.0, then the dragged document directly adds to the respective Workflow or Workflow Queue. Therefore, you should not see the following prompts asking you to select the values from respective drop-down lists for Workflow 1.0 and or Workflow 2.0.

 

For Workflow 1.0:

 

If the selected Workflow Type is 1.0, then system will ask you to select Workflow Queue and Workflow State from the respective drop-down list as displayed below. After selecting the appropriate option, click on Add to Workflow button.

There are 2 methods to add workflow item to Workflow as mentioned below:

 

Method 1: Adding items directly to Workflow

 

Method 2: Adding items through a Drop Point

 

Note:

Users having Workflow Super User rights or Workflow Admin rights or Workflow Submission rights should ONLY see below window while dragging and dropping the item. And only those users will be allowed to add the items either directly to Workflow or using Drop Point.

Description of each method is as follows:

 

Method 1: Adding items directly to Workflow

 

1. Drag & Drop the item in the Workflow grid. Below displayed prompt opens. You should see 2 options for adding the items. Select Add items directly to the Workflow option and click Next. You can check Remember My Answer checkbox if you want the system to remember this answer and you do not want to view this prompt again for the logged-in Workflow User. However, if you wish to view this prompt again and want to change your submission type, you can do it from Options tab of PaperSave Web Workflow form by de-selecting Reset Drag & Drop Default Submission button.
