Innovative document imaging software is an integrated suite of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) software solutions built upon on a central content repository. Customers from small and mid-size businesses (SMBs) to the world's largest enterprises use document imaging software to drive down the cost and time it takes to complete business processes, reduce their susceptibility to risk, and comply with government regulations.

DOCUMENT IMAGING SOFTWARE AUTOMATED CD PUBLISHING

What It Is
Document imaging software Automated CD Publishing module extends imaging software Publishing to a lights-out operation. Instead of having people dedicated to launching publish jobs directly through the Client, they can now define the publish jobs in advance and have the document imaging software system produce CD or DVD output for them at pre-determined intervals throughout the year.

How It Works
This Automated CD Publishing gives users the ability to select a group of documents for monthly, quarterly, bi-annual or annual publishing. The publish jobs are scheduled to be created at these specified intervals and will be written to CD or DVD media via your Rimage unit.

The user has control over the amount of days to wait after the publishing period has completed. In this way, if all documents for the publishing period are not available until 5 or 10 days after the period is over, the document imaging software will wait until that delay period is over before launching the job. Also, the job can be scheduled to begin at a particular time of day in order to utilize system resources after hours or after maintenance downtime has completed.

The user can use the document imaging software to control the layout of the label on these CD's and the content. Any user defined static strings that are job specific can be configured to appear on the label as well as the start and end date of the published period to differentiate CD's throughout the year.

Who Will Benefit
Through the use of Automated CD Publishing, users do not need to manually locate and publish the appropriate documents for each defined interval. Accuracy is also increased because publish jobs containing the required documents are guaranteed to be published and properly labeled by the Rimage unit.
