Do you need to scan your existing paper archives ?

Do you need to scan with intelligence your incoming documents (mails, customer complaints,
loans requests, orders,…)?

folders…

With IntelliScan you will interactively define this

sequence and then:

Some generic functionnalitieS
form generation
form concept is an e-form designing function. The forms can be used to index contents or assigned to ob-
jects circulating within workflow processes. At the end of the process the data may: become attributes; be
associated to the objects they were assigned to, or simply remain in the form.
A form can be composed of other types of attributes such as radio buttons, checkboxes, active command
buttons…
Data entry areas are accessible only to authorized profiles so the form may not be exactly the same (invisible
areas, read only areas, etc.) in different tasks according to access and security criteria.

Search modeS
No matter where the objects are located (circulating objects, archived objects) they can be found thanks to
search tools. A search can be limited to one or several processes or databases, as well as to a selection of
folders within a same database. There are many search modes among which the main are:
• Searches on attributes, folders and pages’ name, notes’ content, documents’ content, processes…
• Full text searches on text documents and on texts resulting from OCR operations.
• Customized searches where the user will only have to fill the fields before launching them.
Security
In gargantua 7 permissions can be set on any of the objects regardless of their location in the database.
This assigns specific rights to each group or user group involved in a process or seeking to access a database
and its content. A specific manager defines all security levels and access rights assigned to roles, users and
groups, for the whole platform, for each database, for each process…
Synchronization with LDAP or Active Directory, S.S.O. functionality, Management of Id and Password…
are integrated.

audit
All events, transactions, form data modifications, etc. are logged and saved for a period defined according to
the process type. This information allows the generation of statistics about processes’ execution time but also
about user’s individual or general average productivity…
