The ds32.imaging module is a powerful enterprise-wide solution, designed to electronically capture paper-based information, and then securely archive, manage and retrieve the documents in electronic format.
Paper based documents are scanned via industry standard hardware from Fujitsu, Canon & Kodak for example. Documents may be scanned individually, in batches, automatically or remotely via facsimile. Where volumes are high, Customers sometime consider the option to have a third party scanning bureau complete the scanning and indexing process. The bureau will then deliver a ds32-ready CD for simple uploading into the system.
Typical ds32.imaging applications include Application Forms, Signed Delivery Notes (Proof of Delivery), Accounts Payable and Customer Correspondence.
ds32.imaging supports all forms of recognition technologies, including OCR, ICR and Bar Code. Integration with line of business applications and with external databases shortens and simplifies the indexing process, by ensuring that data is input just once.
Once documents have been stored, they may be retrieved via Windows 95, 98, 2000, NT or Browser client, or via Internet and company Intranet, within seconds. Users may then annotate or append notes. Anything that could have been added to or actioned on a paper document can now be added or actioned to its electronic replacement.
Integration of ds32.cold/erm and ds32.imaging provides the ability to view computer generated output and scanned images side by side - Invoices and their associated Delivery Notes (PODs) or Statements and Cheques for example. |
