Streamline Document Capture With Reusable Rules

Paper slows down business, and creates inefficient error-prone processes. Scanning the paper and capturing the data written on it enables efficiency and automation, but capture itself can be difficult and costly. Issues include the complexity and cost of capture system configuration, the difficulty of handling unstructured forms such as invoices, distributing the capture process, integrating capture with various business systems, and coping with everchanging requirements.

Datacap's Rulerunner addresses these issues with a new approach based on rules – a common point-click approach to configuring the capture chain end-to-end, designed for use by a business analyst, not a developer. Datacap provides libraries of hundreds of prebuilt capture actions, configurable with simple parameters, even challenging jobs like capturing invoices. If those aren't enough, users can create their own custom rules using VBScript. You can test each rule as you configure it, and step through the capture chain graphically in the Rulerunner tool, simplifying debugging and speeding deployment of new capture solutions./p>

Beyond the simplification enabled by rules, Rulerunner is implemented as a web service. Rulerunner Service (RRS) advances capture to the standards of 21st-century IT architecture, based on SOA and platform-neutral standards, allowing it not only to integrate capture components from a variety of leading suppliers, but integrate the entire capture chain with external systems and business processes through industry-standard interfaces.
