What is SkyScan?
• SkyScan v2 was introduced with the February 2013 Release Addendum 8.
• SkyScan allows customers to scan attachments via the Skyward Web product using a
workstation-installed scanner.
• SkyScan v3.2 was made available March 23rd, 2018 and is required for customers that have
upgraded to Progress OpenEdge 11.7
• The difference between the versions is that v2 is supported by http Skyward programs and v3 is
supported by http or https Skyward programs.
What is needed to use SkyScan?
• A scanner is needed; example Scantron or Canon CanoScan.
• SkyScan requires Microsoft Full Versions of .NET Framework 4 or 4.5+
• SkyScan is a Windows Only Plugin and is supported on Windows Vista or newer (32-bit and 64-
bit)
• SkyScan requires the scanner to be TWAIN compatible and/or have Windows Image Acquisition
Drivers (WIA) and be included in the Windows Scanners list on the workstation to function.
What is included in SkyScan?
• SkyScan includes a Workstation Client named SkyScan.exe and a Windows Service named
SkyScan.Service.exe
How Does SkyScan Process?
• SkyScan will run a small web server on the user’s computer at the port specified by the
configuration option, SkyScan.Service.Httpserver.
• When the web server receives specific requests from the Skyward Web product it knows to
attempt the scanning of a document and delivers the result of that scan back to the Skyward Web
product.
Is an older SkyScan client already installed on the
scanner’s workstation(s)?
• If an older SkyScan client is installed on the scanner’s workstation, it will have to be uninstalled
prior to running the SkyScan v3.2 Client Installer.
• The SkyScan version can be found by locating the SkyScan icon in the system tray, Right click
the icon, Select About.
