Tasks

Configuring the Windows Task

To enable the task click the Enable option. When enabled you can select a schedule from the drop down if the message Task Not Scheduled is displayed then one should click the New button to create a new task schedule.

Pending Print Job Removal

This provides the ability to automatically delete jobs from the FollowMe Q-Server that have been waiting to be printed for a specified period of time. For example, if someone sends a print job but does not go to the printer to print it out the FollowMe Q-Server can be set to delete the print job after one day, two days or whatever length of time that is required.

Audit Job Removal

The FollowMe Q-Server keeps an extensive record of each job that is processed. Over time this can create a large amount of data, much of which will not be needed again once reports have been generated and accounted for. Using this option, the audit data can be set to be cleared on a regular basis. For example, the FollowMe Q-Server can be set up to delete all print job details more than a month old and could be set to do it once a week.

Credit Addition

This provides a system wide credit addition service. On a scheduled basis a specified number of credits is added to your users accounts.  This is especially useful in a pay for print environment.

Transaction Log Truncation (SQL Database Only)

The transaction log is a feature unique to SQL Server where a log is created for each operation that the database makes. As with the Audit Job Removal above, use this option to remove old data that is no longer required.

Dynamic User Import/Shared User Import

Use this option to schedule FollowMe Q-Server to check either the Microsoft Windows Domain Controller, Active Directory or LDAP at regular intervals and automatically add, update or delete any new users that have been created. This can be used in conjunction with the Import List feature.

Note: As with the Import Users from CSV and Import Users from Server feature, full configuration details for each user will still need to be set up. See Dynamic User Import for further configuration details.
