Creation and accounting of anonymous and purge jobs
Anonymous print/copy job accounting
When anonymous jobs are created
An anonymous job is created when the MFP counter is increased without the job being recognized by the YSoft SafeQ system; for example, when a print or copy is made without YSoft SafeQ (a non-YSoft SafeQ print/copy). YSoft SafeQ creates the anonymous job when it accounts the next job on the same MFP (because YSoft SafeQ checks MFP counters both before and after it performs any job).
An anonymous job is accounted according to the cost center of the MFP where the job was printed. In this situation, the job owner is a special user called "counter difference", which can be seen only after final processing of statistical data in the CRS database.
Anonymous jobs can be enabled in SafeQ Web interface -> System -> System settings -> Expert options:
enableInvalidJobs = true
disable-CNAJ = false
cntrCheckDiff = true
Options are enabled by default.
Purge job accounting
When purge jobs are created
A purge job is created when a print job is not printed by an MFP or if it is accounted as 0 pages (ie. if offline accounting is used and the job has not been parsed correctly). In this situation, a job is created based on parser information, with prices configurable via the YSoft SafeQ Web Interface. If parser is disabled, the job is created from default information in the YSoft SafeQ Web Interface as black-and-white A4.
Purge jobs can be enabled in SafeQ Web interface -> System -> System settings -> Expert options:
enable-purge_reports = true
Option is disabled by default.
