Adding filter fields to the document list view

Kofax AP Essentials Office users can click in the document list view to specify which columns are visible. If the field you need is not available by default, however, administrators can specify up to four additional fields to be made available for indexing and filtering.

Too add more filter fields to the document list view:

  1. Log in to Admin Center and navigate to the Extraction view.
  2. Click EDIT and select the General settings.
  3. Click ADD in the EXTRA SEARCHABLE FIELDS settings.

    A new row appears.

  4. Select the field type you want to add and specify the DISPLAY NAME. The display name determines the name of the column in the document list view.

    Note that the default fields listed above are not available for selection because they are already available in the document list view. Custom fields created on the buyer level are also not available for selection.

  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each field you want to add. You can add up to four fields.
  6. Click SAVE.

    The new columns appear to Kofax AP Essentials Office users in the document list views. Note, however, that only new documents entering the system from this point forward are indexed. Documents that are in the system already are not indexed unless they are saved by a user.
