Load Archives
The Xenos Loader™ maximizes IBM® FileNet™ P8 investments by enabling organizations to load high volumes of print stream documents, images and their associated metadata within FileNet P8, eliminating the need to retain and support legacy IDARS archives. It breaks up stacked files into individual document objects, transforms formats as required and extracts additional indexing information directly from the content during processing. Xenos Loader supports any print stream format such as: AFP, Metacode and Line Data, as well as XML, PDF, PDF/A, workstation documents, and rich media file types. It provides a central gateway between an organization’s business-critical content and their IBM ECM solution.
BENEFITS:
Lowers Total Cost of Ownership
- Eliminates the requirement to retain and support legacy IDARS archives by enabling high-volume content to be loaded into IBM FileNet P8 as individual document objects.
Reduces paper and printing costs
- Online presentment eliminates the need to print and distribute internal reports and external statements
- Reduction in traditional print requirements results in the inherent savings for: toner, paper, printer maintenance, postage, etc.
Reduces complexity, enabling vendor consolidation
- The ideal solution to handle print stream, image, workstation documents, media file types and structured data formats for load into IBM FileNet P8
- Xenos P8 Loader handles both semi-structured and structured data formats in a single solution
- Data mapping, transformation and translation capabilities allow the Xenos solution to receive, process and quality-assure document indexing/metadata information in any structured data format
Increases agility and control for enterprise information management
- Provides a centralized gateway to capture, transform, index, and repurpose high-volume customer-facing and third-party business-critical documents into IBM FileNet P8
- A 100% Java application allows for cross platform support and seamless SOA integration
Supports Green IT initiatives
- Reduces hard-copy print and distribution requirements by providing a solution for the transformation of print stream documents into readable formats, and then delivering them to FileNet P8 for online presentment.
In addition to the many internal operational reports produced by corporate applications, some of the most business-critical content includes customer-facing documents such as statements, invoices, policies, bills or check images. As well, there are internal management reports such as inventory positions, payroll statements, shipping manifests and financial statements. These types of documents are produced in very high volumes and are traditionally printed on large production printers for internal distribution or delivery to external customers, partners or vendors by mail or courier.
Organizations now demand that this historically-printed information also be made available online in formats such as PDF or TIFF. Online access streamlines internal operations, enhances support for compliance or discovery initiatives, and can promote a better customer experience through online customer self-service channels.
The IBM FileNet P8 ECM platform does not natively support the high-performance load and viewing of print stream document formats. Xenos Loader provides a robust and agile solution that fulfills all of the requirements for automatically loading content, together with its associated document properties (indexes and metadata), directly into IBM FileNet P8. This solution enables transformation, repurposing, indexing, and extraction of print stream documents, images or PDF.
