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.

  •  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:

    • 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
    • An option when more index fields are needed.


Perceptive Content: Workflow Queue

  • Electronic in basket.
  • Holds documents for processing.
  • Workflow queues are based on permissions and processes.
