Portford is pleased to announce the release of DocuNECT v4.8. This release has a number of new enhancements:
Introducing the Classification Module
The new classification module allows document templates to be defined that contain business rules that can identify and classify documents. The web-based classification module presents the separation to an operator to review and modify the classification.
The Document Processing Connector
In previous versions we have split out the processing of document OCR, separation and rendering. In v4.8 we have combined all the functionality into one connector called the Document Processor connector. Additionally, this connector now supports multi-processing (with an additional license) so you can scale up the through-put of document lifecycles.
Enhanced Web Services API
We have made significant enhancements to our web services SDK. In previous versions, the SDK focused on the document upload and indexing (primarily operations in the Client Tools). However, in v4.8 we have added document search and management functionality as well.
DocuNECT Performance Enhancements
Performance in DocuNECT v4.8 has also been significantly enhanced to support more document lifecycle throughput and scalability.
Enhanced Lifecycle Functionality
Enhancements have been made to the lifecycle with more settings to support the Document Processor connector and new classification module. DocScript functions (http://docunect.wikidot.com/lifecyclehelp:lifecycle-docscript-functions-v4-8) and Tags (http://docunect.wikidot.com/lifecyclehelp:lifecycle-tags-v4-8) have also been added to provide additional functionality.
Dashboard Enhancements
Dashboards are a way to present or extend functionality within DocuNECT Web. Our standard dashboard has been enhanced to include barcode functionality and the import and export module that can be used with EMC ApplicationXtender, DocuNECT DM, and Documentum D7.
Technical Compatibility
We have tested DocuNECT v4.8 against the following components:
– Microsoft Server 2012
– Microsoft SQL Server 2012 SP1 and 2014
– The image viewer in DocuNECT Web now supports up to and including Java 7 Update 55
– DocuNECT Web works with Microsoft Internet Explorer 11, Mozilla Firefox v29.0, and Google Chrome v35.0
– Client Tools is now compatible with Microsoft Windows v8.1

Top 5 DocuNECT Business Use Cases for ApplicationXtender
/in Solutions /by Bruce BoltonDocuNECT 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.
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.
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.
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).
Functionality Used: SAP Integration
The commercial broker uses ApplicationXtender repository and Workflow Manager to manage their invoice approval process. DocuNECT is integrated with the Workflow Manager application to upload invoice header and account allocation information to SAP (http://www.sap.com) FI finance system.
Business: Credit Union
Functionality Used: Microsoft Dynamics GP Integration
The credit union uses ApplicationXtender repository and Workflow Manager to manage their invoice approval process. DocuNECT is integrated with the Workflow Manager application to upload invoice header and account allocation information to Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains – http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics/default.aspx) finance system.
Functionality Used: Classification Templates
The mortgage provider wanted to increase the efficiency of their loan origination process by automating the import, classification and indexing of loan origination documents. DocuNECT’s classification and extraction functionality was utilized to create templates to identify different types of loan documents. Once classified, additional rules were applied to extract data from the documents for upload to their loan origination system for processing.
