Decoding Terminology
Capture
Ingestion and scanning of documents from paper, email, or any electronic source into a software platform that uses OCR (optical character recognition) to make text “readable” so important data can be captured for next steps in a workflow or retrieval after it’s been archived.
Classification
Software that examines and classifies structured or semi-structured documents resulting in an auto-generated library of templates. This automatic classification reduces the need for pre-sorting documents before scanning so that organizations getting high volumes of paper mail dramatically cut costs.
Content Management
Software that allows users to import, manage, and access paper, email, images, web pages, and more from one secure library. Provides quick and easy access to any information stored in the content library with full-text searching.
OCR
Translating the characters of a scanned document and converting it into machine readable text.
Workflow
Workflow refers to applications that move information and documents around inside the company. Some workflows are highly complex processes and involve many people from different parts of the world. Security, therefore, becomes increasingly important. Workflow technologies offer simple interfaces and built-in security components.
