Top 5 DocuNECT Business Use Cases for ApplicationXtender

DocuNECT is a powerful document processing and integration platform that can be used in a number of different ways to add value to your EMC Documentum ApplicationXtender system. We have picked 5 business use cases from our customer base to demonstrate the flexibility and capabilities of DocuNECT.

1. Electronic Document Capture
Business: Insurance Company
Functionality Used: Email Capture and Virtual Print Driver

An insurance company utilizes ApplicationXtender to provide a repository of customer insurance policies. The company wanted to move towards an electronic capture solution to reduce the amount of paper scanning.

They implemented an email capture process that allows users to email documents to a central email address that is monitored by DocuNECT. DocuNECT analyzes the body of the email looking for words and phrases defined in business rules to automatically classify the document type and extract the index data.

Their insurance business application generates reports that cannot be exported, but need to be archived in ApplicationXtender. The DocuNECT Virtual Print Driver is used to print reports directly into ApplicationXtender from the business application. The content of the report is analyzed by DocuNECT to extract and assign document index data.

2. Automated Import
Business: Credit Union
Functionality Used:
Electronic Forms Import

The credit union uses different types of electronic forms generated by IMM Online (http://www.immonline.com) and DocuSign Fetch (http://www.docusign.com). DocuNECT sweeps the import locations and imports the different documents into ApplicationXtender. The DocuSign documents are delivered in a ZIP format containing two documents, the original and the signature page. DocuNECT extracts the two documents from the ZIP file and appends them together before importing them into ApplicationXtender.

Business: Credit Union
Functionality Used:
Member Receipt Import and Publishing

The credit union produces electronic receipts from each member transaction at the branch. DocuNECT automates the import of these receipts into ApplicationXtender for archive and also publishes the receipts to the credit union’s internet based banking system.
3. Automated Export
Business: Tax and Flood Company
Functionality Used: Automated Export

The tax and flood company stores documents related to different vendors and customers in ApplicationXtender. Once the title process is complete the documents need to be returned to the lender/customer, who each have a specification on how they want to receive the information. The DocuNECT export process allows administrators to set up specifications for each lender/customer that include the format they want the documents and indexes, which AX application to export from, document conversion requirements , whether the package needs to be ZIPed, and how to deliver the package back to the lender/customer (FTP or sFTP/SSH).

5. Document Classification and Data Extraction
