You could do this with a scheduled task that way its completely automated.

The only thing the tech would need to do is setup the schedule within FlashFXP.

The progress is a bit long but necessary for this type of situation.

(requires FlashFXP v4.0)

Setting up a queue
1. Start FlashFXP
2. Connect to the server where you want to upload the scans.
3. Change to the parent folder where the scans are stored so if the scans are stored in C:\Data\Scans\ then change into C:\Data\
4. Select the "Scans" folder and drag it into the queue window.
5. Right click on the queue window and select "Save As.." and save the queue to a file.

Setting up the schedule and transfer rules.
1. Start FlashFXP
2. Tools > Schedule
3. Click the New Task button
4. Name the task and then select the queue file that was saved in the previous part.
5. Change the file transfer rules to "use custom rules" and then click the custom rules button.
6. Click the Add button on the File Transfer Rules dialog.
(Most likely you'll only want to upload new scans, skipping any existing files on the server.)
7. Size = "equal" Date = "No Compare" Transfer = "No compare" then set Action to Skip, finally click the OK button, and then the OK button again.
(Now you should be back at the New Task dialog.)
8. Click the Schedule tab.
9. Set the Schedule task to "Daily" and to recur every 1 days, check "Repeat Task" and entire the desired number of minutes to re-run this task, depending on how often this needs to be done, you could have it run every few minutes to hours.
There are a few other options that can be configured here as well.
10. Click the "Save" button.
Your new automated task is now setup and ready to go.

If this is too complicated for your situation we can also quote you on a custom made application to suite your needs, or perhaps a custom program that monitors a folder for changes and then automatically starts FlashFXP to upload the scans.
