Submitting jobs

You can submit jobs using the default location of Smart Folders, or by SMB, FTP or sFTP, Dropbox, or by a drag-and-drop operation.

SmartFolders are automatically created during installation of Fiery JobFlow as a root folder on the computer drive that has most space available. When a workflow is created in Fiery JobFlow, a corresponding folder with the name of the workflow is created inside the SmartFolders folder. SmartFolders are shared across the network, and accessed by SMB from any Windows or Mac computer on the network. Ask the administrator for the IP address or domain name. You can either copy and paste or use a drag-and-drop operation to submit jobs to a specific SmartFolder.

Jobs can also be submitted from a number of other locations:

  • Dropbox

  • SMB

  • FTP

  • sFTP

  • Drag-and-drop operation from the computer desktop onto the browser where Fiery JobFlow is open.

The locations are set up by the administrator from the Account Settings window, and multiple instances of each type of location can be added. You can choose to have both completed and errored jobs archived in any location.

Jobs can be submitted as a single file or a folder or an archive (a .zip file). When a number of files are submitted inside a folder or an archive, Fiery JobFlow combines them into one job. The files will be merged in the alphabetical order of the file/job names. You can submit a folder to all input sources, except Dropbox. All input sources accept an archive or a single file.
