Capture
Regardless of how they arrive, all forms are handled in the same reliable and straightforward process. However, in spite of the IT revolution, most forms still arrive on paper. Consequently, it is important that the scanner handling includes identification, deskewing, removal of preprinted background, color processing, quality control during scanning and endorser print handling.
Sorting
Since each form must be identified for the correct template to be applied, sorting is automatic.
Extraction and validation
Template flexibility is highly desirable, since printers, scanners and faxes might introduce some vertical and horizontal offset.
Expect complete information from:
- Handwriting and special characters, in spite of the significant variations between regions and languages
- All of the main barcode types currently in use, including Data Matrix (QR code)
- Check boxes and circle fields
A wide variety of databases, dictionaries, range checks and other validation tools can be used to ensure the very highest accuracy. When data can be confirmed automatically, the form may bypass verification.
Verification
Forms can be validated at a rate of about 100,000 characters per hour using our fast and mass verification techniques. Any changes you make are instantly revalidated.
To simplify verification and workflow-oriented activities, a digital image for each form is available throughout the entire process. This image is subsequently archived along with the form information.
Production overview
Monitor the production status of the forms, sets and batches in your database. Select items of interest in any combination and copy them for further analysis in your external program of choice.
Integration
You can add your own functionality and integrate FORMS with any external system – for statistics, order pick lists, inventory updates, personnel files and more.
In all cases you get the security and flexibility that can be expected from a business-critical process.
