7 minute read Last updated on November 05, 2021

Accessing Verification

To check the quality of your documents using DP Web’s Verification app, do the following:

Log into Dispatcher Phoenix Web (with the same credentials used when logging into the Dispatcher Phoenix client application).
Select the Verification card, as in the following illustration:

The Verification page will appear, listing all Verification workflows that have had batches submitted to them on the left hand side of the page.
Select a workflow to view a list of batches that were submitted to that specific workflow.
Select a batch to begin verifying documents in that batch. The preview area will display the first page of the first document in the batch. See the following illustration for an example:

You can customize this view to best suit your work environment. For example, you can resize the Workflow/Batch list panel and/or click the arrow on the side of the Workflow/Batch list area to hide the batch list completely and only display the preview area.

Verifying Documents

When verifying documents, follow these steps:

Locking the Batch

Before you begin verifying documents, you must first select the START BATCH button. This will prevent other users from opening/verifying the same batch.

Once you are finished verifying the documents, select the STOP BATCH button to release the exclusive lock that you had on the batch.

Saving Documents as “Verified”

SAVE - At any time in the verification process, you can save the document as “verified” by selecting the SAVE button on the toolbar or pressing CTRL + S. The document will remain in the Verification Queue.
SAVE & MOVE - To save the document as “verified” and move to another document in the batch (but not submit the document or batch to Dispatcher Phoenix), you can select the SAVE & MOVE button or press CTRL + Enter. The document will remain in the Verification Queue.

Releasing Documents

RELEASE - You can release the current document, instead of the entire batch, by selecting the RELEASE button or pressing CTRL + 9. The current document will leave the Verification Queue and be submitted to the Dispatcher Phoenix workflow for further processing, routing, and storing.
RELEASE ALL - When all the documents in the batch have been verified, you can select the RELEASE ALL button or press F9. All the documents in the batch will then leave the Verification Queue and be submitted to the Dispatcher Phoenix workflow for further processing, routing, and storing.

Rejecting Documents

REJECT - If you need to reject a document from the batch, you can select the REJECT button or press CTRL + Delete. The document will leave the Verification Queue and be sent back to the Dispatcher Phoenix workflow (from the Verification node’s No transition).

Deleting Documents/Batches

DELETE DOC - You can permanently delete a document from a batch by selecting the DELETE DOC button. The document will leave the Verification Queue. It will not be sent to Dispatcher Phoenix.
DELETE BATCH - You can permanently delete a batch from the Verification Queue by selecting the DELETE BATCH button. The batch will leave the Verification Queue. It will not be sent to Dispatcher Phoenix.

Navigating Through Pages and Documents

To navigate through pages and documents, you can use the Verification page’s tool bar buttons or keyboard shortcuts.

To go to the first document in the batch, select the FIRST DOC button on the tool bar or press CTRL + M.
To go to the previous document in the batch, select the PREV DOC button on the tool bar or press CTRL + ,.
To go to the next document in the batch, select the NEXT DOC button on the tool bar or press CTRL + ..
To go to the last document in the batch, select the LAST DOC button on the tool bar.

See the following screenshot for an illustration of the Verification Tool Bar’s navigation buttons:
