Document Interfaces

Transfer Directories

File folders on network and local drives can be defined as transfer directories. A document filed to any of these folders is automatically transferred to ArcFlow. Using the flexible interface definition for transfer directories documents are automatically allocated to their respective workfolders based on their content and file name.

Printer Driver

ArcFlow can distribute self-defined printer drivers to target systems across the company. Printouts are not only sent to a printer but also to the DMS. This means that print jobs are simultaneously printed and filed to ArcFlow. Documents can be printed and transferred over to the document management system as either PDF or TIFF files at the time of print, without any additional costs for licensing the PDF generation tool. Users can keep their familiar workflows, at the same time automatically securing all printed order and invoice form sheets in ArcFlow.

E-Mail Interface

ArcFlow can be connected to all standard e-mail systems that use SMTP and POP3. A proxy server processes all incoming and outgoing e-mails and sends them to the mail server and client, respectively. The electronic messages are sorted automatically and filed to the allocated workfolders. Depending on what has been defined, allocation is carried out using e-mail header data, such as the sender‘s or recipient‘s address, certain terms in the subject header line, the message content (body) or the content of the attached files.
