The doQuments* Import Add-On lets you add documents and their indexing data to any doQuments DB via the command line.

Using the doQuments Import Add-On you can...
1) Import files into any doQuments DB (without importing any indexing data)
2) Import indexing data into any doQuments DB (without importing any files)
3) Import files along with their indexing data into any doQuments DB.

The information to be imported must be provided in a text file in the CSV (comma separated values) format. For each line in the text file...
1. The Import Add-On creates a new record in the specified doQuments DB.
2. Any indexing information from that line is copied into the fields of the new record
3. Any files listed in that line are added to the new record

The doQuments* Import Add-On is currently available FREE for ITAZ doQuments Enterprise Edition customers.

Usage

Scenario 1
If you outsource your scanning or indexing operations, your vendor can send you the scanned documents and a CSV text file which contains the document list and the corresponding indexing information. The vendor may send you such information once a day or every week.

Importing thousands of documents and their indexing information can take a long time. More so if the documents being imported must also be encrypted.

With the doQuments Import Add-On you can specify the settings to use for the import in a config file. You can then easily schedule (using the Windows Scheduler) the import process to run unattended at specified times (for e.g. in the night). This way the import process can be automated and reduce chances of errors.

File in CSV (Comma Separated Value) format

In this case, after the CSV (comma separated value) file is created, you can set the doQuments* Import Add-On to import data from this file. Now whenever a new document is scanned, the Import Add-On will add it directly to your doQuments DB as new records.

Scenario 2
You have an application which exports a CSV file containing information that you need to import into a doQuments DB at periodic intervals.

With the doQuments Import Add-On you can specify the settings to use for the import in a config file. You can then re-use the config file everything you need to import.

The doQuments Import add-on can be used in your Command window (also known as the DOS window). The general syntax for doQuments Import Add-On is...

dqimport.exe /ParameterName="Parameter Value"

Example:

dqimport.exe /username="John" /password="pwdjohn" /db="C:\doQuments databases\Letters Received.dqd" /importfile = "C:\Temp\scandata.csv"
In the above example /UserName, /password /db and /importfile are parameter names and “John", “pwdjohn" and "C:\doQuments databases\Letters Received.dqd" and "C:\Temp\scandata.csv" are their respective parameter values .

Example 2 : To add new records from an import file to the doQuments DB:

dqimport.exe /UserName="john" /password="pwdjohn" /db="C:\doQuments databases\Letters Received.dqd" /ImportFile="C:\temp\scandata.csv"
/formatconfig="C:\temp\formatconfig.txt"
This statement will...

Log on to doQuments using 'John' as the user name and 'pwdjohn' as the password.

Open a doQuments DB called 'Letters Received.dqd' from C:\doQuments databases.

Add new records into this doQuments DB using data from the "c:\temp\scandata.csv" file using the format settings (eg. time and date format, currency etc.) from the 'c:\temp\formatconfig.txt' file.

If the Full Text Search feature has been enabled for the DB, then text will be automatically extracted from the documents while they are being added to the DB.

If the DB requires all files to be encrypted then the documents will be automatically encrypted when they are being added to the DB.
