ADSS Auto File Processor
ADSS Auto File Processor (AFP) is an application for ADSS Signing Server, which provides businesses with a convenient way of processing data files by using a watched folder approach. It provides one of the simplest ways to utilise the power of the ADSS Server and can be easily inserted into a workflow system without any system integration or development expense.
The main use of AFP is for bulk signing of documents, particularly PDF invoices. It has been designed to provide intelligent watched folder monitoring of one or more Windows folders or Unix directories to process batches of documents in an unattended environment.
AFP creates digital signatures by calling the ADSS Server with a specified signing profile. This pre-defined profile determines the type of signature to be produced and the signed documents are delivered back to AFP which writes them to an output folder, or if a problem is detected, an issues folder.
Further information about Auto File Processor is available here.
Multiple watched folder profiles can be managed – each defines a set of input, output and error folders and the ADSS signing policy to be used.
ADSS AFP allows watched folder profiles to include complex rules such as defining sub-folders, file name filters, batch sizes and operational timers.
ADSS AFP signing profiles can use the full power of ADSS Server and can sign using basic and long-term digital signatures including: PDF (PAdES), PDF/A, XML DSig, XAdES, PKCS#7, CMS and CAdES.
ADSS AFP provides a simple and effective way of managing watched folder profiles and sophisticated rules of filtering without any development/integration effort.
ADSS Auto File Processor allows watched folder profiles to include complex rules such as defining sub-folders, filename filters, batch sizes and operational timers.
ADSS Auto File Processor authenticates itself to ADSS Signing Server using a pre-defined caller ID and TLS client authentication certificates.
