eDOCS DM Web Helper Installation

Select Installations from the title bar to access the MSI installation package for eDOCS Web Helper.

To install eDOCS Web Helper:

  1. Click the drop-down menu next to your user name on the title bar and select Installations.

  2. The Installations dialog box appears with eDOCS Web Helper listed. Click Install.

  3. A Save As dialog box appears; select a location to save to and click Save.

  4. Launch the eDOCS DM <version> Web Helper.msi installation file.

  5. After you’ve installed eDOCS Web Helper and the DM server has started, the eDOCS Web Helper icon will appear in the system tray.

After eDOCS Web Helper is installed and running, the DM Webtop can connect to the server and make server calls for Check-in and Check-out operations. To determine if the server is running (or is installed from within the DM Webtop), a ping is sent to the server on specified port numbers. If the ping is received and responded to, the DM Webtop saves the port number and displays the service as running.

Once the DM Webtop is able to connect to eDOCS Web Helper, it sends check-in and check-out requests to the same.

At this point you can specify the Default Check-Out Location. This setting is enabled only when the eDOCS Web Helper is running.
