Summary
In order to help Cirrus detect and connect to a document scanner connected directly to the workstation or on the workstation's network, the Springbrook Agent must be installed. This small application will run in the background when you are using a scanner and ensure a consistent connection between Cirrus and your peripheral hardware. Connected document scanners must use TWAIN or WIA drivers.
NOTE: If you do not have access to the Install Springbrook Agent page in Cirrus, you can use the direct link below to download, install, and run the agent.
Step by Step
- Open the Install Springbrook Agent page (Support> Install Springbrook Agent).
- Click the Download button to download the Springbrook Agent Setup.exe file.
- Once the file has successfully downloaded, browse to the download location and double-click the file to open the Springbrook Agent Setup Wizard.
- Click the Install button and follow the prompts to install the Springbrook Agent.
- Click the Finish button when the installation is complete.
- Once installed, the Springbrook Agent will automatically start running every time the workstation is in use.
- The first time you attempt to scan a document to attach to a Cirrus record or in the AP Invoice Document Reader, you will be prompted to provide the Springbrook Agent ID as an additional security measure.
- Open the system tray on your workstation, right-click on the Springbrook Agent icon , and select Copy Agent ID to Clipboard.
- Paste that agent ID into the Missing Springbrook Agent Configuration window and click the Create and Connect button.
- This Agent ID step is only required the first time the current user uses the document scanner functionality on the current workstation. If a different user attempts to use the document scanner on the current workstation, or if the current user attempts to use the document scanner on a different workstation, the Agent ID step will be required again.
- Once the Springbrook Agent is installed and confirmed, documents can be scanned as attachments or as invoices in the AP Invoices Document Reader.
