Enable/Disable email intake configuration
In PV, you can set up the system to automatically retrieve files—SAE forms—from emails sent to a specific mailbox by adding the email intake configurations. Once the configuration is added, you need to enable it to start running the file retrieval process on a scheduled basis and check for any new intake.
Since the system checks for new files constantly—based on your settings, it can be every minute—there is no need to overload the system with this task when it is unnecessary. Enabling or disabling the email intake configuration helps you control the resources of the system by only running the checkup for new emails with files when needed and ceasing this operation when redundant.
For instance, you can prepare the email intake configuration in advance and only enable it when the actual sharing of SAE forms via email starts and the file retrieval is required.
