How to restrict batches with IBM Datacap

Taskmaster Capture

Abstract

How can users be restricted to run only their own batches in Taskmaster Client or Taskmaster Web?

Answer

To have users scan, upload and verify only their own batches (or something similar), use the Store and Queue To task settings specified in Taskmaster Administrator's Workflow tab.

1. Run Taskmaster Client.


2. Select Settings, Workflow.


3. Highlight each Task in turn, and set the following:
   
   
   
   • Queue To - Select the option on how batches need to be restricted.
   
   
   • Store - Select the information that needs to be stored. Note that Queue To settings will not work properly if the needed information was not set to Store in the previous Task.
   
   
   
   


4. Select the Users tab.


5. Highlight each user for which this restriction will apply, expand Privileges, Job Monitor, and uncheck Priority/Operator/Station change.

Example:

• Scan - (Store) Station and User


• Upload - (Queue to) Same station same user


• Verify - (Queue to) Same user

In this example, all batches scanned by a user will only be uploaded by a user when logged into Taskmaster Web with the same user name and station ID. The same batches will be verified when logged into Taskmaster Web or Taskmaster Client with the same user name (but not necessarily the same station ID).
