    Enabled

    Specify if the service is enabled.

    As soon as you enable the service, at least two job queue entries are created to process the traffic of electronic documents in and out of Microsoft Dynamics NAV. When you disable the service, the job queue entries are deleted.

    Signup URL

    Specify the Web page where you sign up for the OCR service.

    Service URL

    Specify the address of the OCR service, which will be called when you send and receive files for OCR.

    Login URL

    Specify the login page for the OCR service, which is where you enter your company’s user name, password, and authorization key to log in to the service.

Note

It is recommended that you protect the logon information that you enter in the OCR Service Setup window. You can encrypt data on the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server by generating new or importing existing encryption keys that you enable on the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server instance that connects to the database. This is described in the following procedure.

To encrypt your login information

  1. In the OCR Service Setup window, on the Home tab, in the Encryption group, choose Encryption Management.

  2. In the Data Encryption Management window, enable encryption of your data. For more information, see Manage Data Encryption.
