How do I create a new global profile?
1.Click Add... and define the actions that should be triggered from the 3rd-party dialog. Choices are: Search, Full-text Search, Cross Category Search, Scan, Scan in Viewer, Save and Run Executable. This menu also allows you to change the selected action, by selecting an action, and choosing edit. In this case, we would like to find a document in Thereforeā¢ based on the index data in the 3rd party dialog. Choose Add and then select Search for document from the drop-down box.
2.The Thereforeā¢ Action Settings dialog will open. Define a shortcut key which will trigger the search dialog. Choose the Thereforeā¢ category where the documents are saved. For the Search action it is also possible to select a saved search, for example, to have a pre-defined hit-list layout.
3.To map a common index field, click Add... then select an Index Field from the Thereforeā¢ category/case. For Value, choose Clipboard Text. This means the value highlighted in the third-party application will be used to filter this index field when performing a search. Click OK once done.
4.This will return you to the Define Actions dialog. Click Finish once all actions have been defined. The new profile will now be listed. Now all users who have the Universal Connector locally installed (via the Thereforeā¢ Client setup) will be able to use this profile.
