This is the heart of the product and controls the execution of all libraries. Without it running, a library cannot be audited or OCRed. It is also used by the scheduler to automate the processing of libraries at regular time intervals without interfering with other work being performed on the machine it is installed in. It is also used to generate scheduled reports and sending email alerts.

The service can be turned on or off by going to Settings > Advanced tab.

The Service Status is displayed at the bottom left of all tabs.
