Test Mode

The test mode is an option to test the service without sending documents. Complete the following steps to set the test mode.

  1. Go to File > Auto Send Options from the main EBMS menu Click on the Diagnostic Settings tab as shown below:
  2. Enable the Activate test mode to put the Auto Send module into test module. During an Auto Send module test, no documents will be e-mailed or faxed to the customer. Instead all the documents will be sent from the Auto Send Module to the contact information provided.
  3. Select the Testing Type.  This setting determines if the documents are sent to the set e-mail or fax number. A maximum number of tests during each run can be set. A value of blank or zero will indicate no limit for the test.  Note that you can only test one mode at a time. The mode is determined by the Testing Type.
  4. Set the appropriate contact settings such as email or fax number.
  5. Set the maximum number of tests during each run in to the Send a maximum of __ tests during each run.
  6. The Logging Settings are optional ways of recording a log of the documents that were sent including the status of the send.
    1. Enable the Create a general log for Auto Send processes option to create a log that will record each module function. This is useful in identifying a problem with the process. This option should be temporarily enabled while testing the process and should not be enabled under normal circumstances.
    2. Enable the Create a CSV log file each time Auto Statements are run to create a Comma-Separated Values (CSV) file when the Auto Statements process is run. This log will contain all the send information. A new file will be created for each run. This file can be used for diagnostic purposes.  The log files are found in the Export Folder set within the general tab.

The Recovery Options repopulate the contact information from the General tab, within a customer or vendor record, to the Primary field within the Contacts tab. All previous Primary contact information will be removed.
