Perceptive Content: Forms Workflow
The Forms Workflow is unique to UW-Stout.
- It is a temporary holding area for documents to be stored, routed, and signed.
- The L_Forms drawer is a holding drawer.
- No documents permanently live in L_Forms drawer.
- Once the documents are processed, they are re-indexed into their permanent drawer.
Forms Application plan: ~L_Forms
- F1 = Last Name, First Name (can be left blank if document isn’t associated to a person)
- F2 = Username (automatically populated)
- F3 = Date/Time (automatically populated)
- F4 = Subject (for additional information if needed, can be left blank)
- F5 = Reservation # or Payroll ID (Leave blank, this one is for Dining or HR)
- Document Type (you must select the correct document type - it may affect later archiving and routing)
Perceptive Content: Indexing (Linking)
ImageNow-Perceptive Content Linking: The process that assigns the document keys for document retrieval.
- This process is currently used by a couple of departments on campus.
- Indexing:
- Application plans are used during the linking/indexing/scraping process.
- Defines designated fields that will be used to hold data in order for fast and seamless document retrieval.
- Scraping:
- Is the process of using Access Stout (also known as PeopleSoft) to populate the fields.
- This process helps to eliminate human error.
- Auto indexing process:
- Routing a document through workflow to set the index values of the document.
- Most common re-indexing work flow queues are:
- global_reindex_ft5: uses field 5 campus ID.
- global_reindex_ft5_empl: uses field 5 empl ID.
- Scripts within the workflow queue will set the Campus ID, Name, and Empl ID.
- Scripts use the Access Stout database for this process.
- Scraping:
- Is the process of using Access Stout (also known as PeopleSoft) to populate the fields.
- This process helps to eliminate human error.
- Re-linking
- The L_Forms drawer documents will be “re-linked” once they are processed
- The document will be assigned its permanent index fields.
- Custom Properties
