Configuring Fax Approval
Fax Approval provides the supervisor with an easy to use mechanism for imposing approval requirements prior to processing a Send Fax request and for appointing approval authorities. Approval requirements are based on telephone access: local, long distance or international phone numbers. Approvers are designated by their level of access privileges.
FaxPress has enhanced the approval mechanism to allow users to submit a fax, view the rasterized fax image, and then decide if they approve of the appearance and content before sending the fax. Fax Approval allows you to stipulate outgoing fax approval criteria for each FaxPress user.
To implement Fax Approval, follow these steps:
1. | Define user approval requirements |
2. | Select Approvers. |
3. | Approve Faxes |
To define user approval requirements:
1. | Login to FaxPress with supervisor privileges. |
