Switch 2019 Spring

Starting with the 2019 Spring release, Enfocus will be distributing two Switch releases each year. In this year’s first update, there are impressive, valuable new features:

Remote processing: Remote Process is a flow element that allows users to route Switch jobs out of the flow, process them remotely using a third-party service, then bring them back into the flow after processing. The Scripting Module is required to make use of this feature.

Submit Point improvements: The functionality of the Submit Point has been embellished to improve flexibility. Changes to the Submit Point in Switch include the ability to submit metadata only, which allows a Switch flow to accept data only, such as a filled form, instead of requiring a physical file to be submitted. Another Submit Point function has been added that sends a job trigger. Managing Submit Point URLs also received some additional options with this release, such as a direct link URL to a Submit Point, which can be created to direct the end user to specific Submit Point, making it simpler to locate. These direct URLs can have an expiration date applied, which is useful in managing submissions.

Redesigned Messages: The Switch 2019 Spring release came with a redesigned Messages view. Enfocus has completely overhauled the way messages are viewed. Messages is the Switch activity log, and the new Messages view contains quick filters, like a slider for viewing a “from-to” timeline.
