Batch confirmation of distributed scan job submission in a business processing system

摘要

Methods and systems execute a first scan job using a scanner device to produce a first electronic scan item, and automatically transmit the first electronic scan item from the scanner device to a computerized device over a network. Exemplary methods herein start execution of a second scan job immediately after executing the first scan job (without waiting for confirmation that the computerized device received the first scan job) using the scanner device to produce a second electronic scan item. Further, such methods automatically generate a first scan receipt confirmation using the computerized device and automatically transmit the first scan receipt confirmation from the computerized device to at least one receiving device (e.g., the scanner device) over the network. Such exemplary methods can therefore automatically display the first scan receipt confirmation (on a graphic user interface of the at least one receiving device) after starting execution of the second scan job.

主权项

1. A system comprising:
a scanner device executing a first scan job to produce a first electronic scan item; and a computerized device operatively connected to said scanner device over a network, said network being operatively connected to said computerized device and said scanner device, said scanner device providing immediate automatic electronic transmissions of scan jobs to said computerized device based on said scanner device executing said scan jobs, said computerized device providing immediate automatic corresponding receipt confirmations of said scan jobs based on said computerized device receiving said scan jobs, said scanner device automatically transmitting said first electronic scan item to said computerized device, said scanner device starting execution of a second scan job after said executing of said first scan job to produce a second electronic scan item, said computerized device automatically generating a first scan receipt confirmation based on said computerized device receiving said first electronic scan item from said scanner device, said computerized device automatically transmitting said first scan receipt confirmation to said scanner device over said network after said starting execution of said second scan job; and said scanner device automatically displaying said first scan receipt confirmation on a graphic user interface of said scanner device after said starting execution of said second scan job.
