Symptoms

Errors while performing export through the application server:

"Could not export to [destination] The specified file already exists."

Cause

Export performed under the service account or user account that doesn't have read/write access to the folder.

Resolution

To check if this is a case of the issue - need to export documents manually from Project Setup Statin (Right-click on the batch - Export).

If documents will be exported successfully then need to grant Read/Write permissions to the Shared folder for the Service account or user account that is used by ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 Processing Station.

Open folder properties - Security - Edit - Add account used by Processing Station Service.

Grant Read-write permissions.

After that export will work as expected.
