You can use a Fujitsu ScanSnap scanner to scan documents into SmartVault using the Connected Desktop with the touch of a button.

One-Time Setup: Selecting the SmartVault Profile

When using ScanSnap Home with SmartVault for the first time, you'll need to select the SmartVault Profile you will use to scan. There are two profile options: SmartVault Toolbar and SmartVault Inbox.

• SmartVault Toolbar - this profile allows you to attach, view, and manage documents directly within applications like QuickBooks Online, Xero, or Freshbooks. Use this profile to scan documents directly to a specific folder within a client's vault. Please note that this is what most users choose for the scanner profile.
• SmartVault Inbox - this profile allows for scanning and uploading of paper documents directly to the company-specific Inbox folder within SmartVault.

Selecting a profile establishes a seamless integration between ScanSnap Home and SmartVault, allowing for easy document scanning. After initially choosing the SmartVault Profile, it will be automatically used for future scanning until you change it.

To set up the SmartVault Profile:

1. Right-click your ScanSnap icon in the system tray and select The scan window.
   
2. Open ScanSnap Home Software on your computer.
3. In the ScanSnap Home Software, select the SmartVault Profile you want to use to scan (SmartVault Toolbar or SmartVault Inbox).
   

Once the SmartVault Profile is set up, you can proceed to scan documents directly into SmartVault with just a few clicks.
