Configuring Monitoring Target Folders
You can select and set a folder in Desktop Browser to be monitored for added or updated documents.
When a folder is specified as a monitoring target, Document Monitor notifies you when there is an unread or updated document in the folder. Unread documents in the target folder can also be highlighted.
When the destination of a Hot Folder is set as a monitored folder and a document is sent to the monitored folder using the Hot Folder function, Document Monitor notifies you. For more information on Hot Folder settings, see the following.

You can set up to 20 folders as monitoring targets. The transfer source folders set in My Tray or a Hot Folder here are not included in the upper limit on the number of folders to monitor.
Subfolders in the folder to be monitored are not monitored. Set it as a monitoring target folder separately.
You cannot specify folders in the Recycle Bin as monitoring target folders. If you move the monitoring target folder to the Recycle Bin, the monitoring cannot be performed. After you restore it to the original location, monitoring is performed again.
You can configure folders to monitor for individual users who log on to the computer.
You can also configure Document Monitor to send notifications for new documents in My Tray. For more information on notification settings for new documents in My Tray, see the following.
If you set a folder in a library that requires authentication to connect to as a monitoring target, a user name and password for logging in to Desktop is required. This user name and password is saved after you enter it in the dialog box that is displayed when connecting to Desktop and then select the [Save user name and password] check box.
If you want to select an unconnected Document Server Library or SharePoint Server Library, or a folder in a library on the network drive that requires authentication, you need to connect to the library. For more information on connecting, see the following.
