• Multiple documents can be scanned or printed into ImageNow all at once.
• The documents can be indexed later or by someone other than the originator.
• The group of documents can be indexed to multiple individuals.
• "Batches" listed on the ImageNow tool bar.
  • Batched documents are stored here until indexed for processing or storage.

General Definition:

• Document properties are used to:
  • Categorize & Store files.
  • Secure & Restrict access to documents.
  • Retrieve documents via searching.
• You need document properties to find the electronic document later. 

Technical Definition: 

• Document Keys are the values added to the document for searching and indexing.
  • Drawer
  • Field 1
  • Field 2
  • Field 3
  • Field 4
  • Field 5
  • Document type
  • Custom properties qualify as document properties also.  
• Custom Properties are similar to document keys. The biggest difference is that the Imaging Team can create custom properties for each document type. 

Perceptive Content:  Document Type

Document type tells us what kind of document it is.

Technical Definition: 

• Document type uniquely categorizes a document.
• Permissions can be assigned at the Document Type level as well.
• We use the document type for automated routing, especially in the L_1Forms Complete workflow queue.
• Document types begin with the department prefix.

• Folders (also known as Projects) bundle documents together in groups, similar to a manila folder. 
• The Office of Research and Sponsored Programs uses folders for routing grants for approvals.
• Admissions uses folders for their student records.
• When routing folders through workflow.
  • Desktop Client: The routing options are found at the top of the folder, all documents need to be closed in-order to route the folder.
  • Perceptive Experience: Routing options will be at the top of the page, all documents need to be closed in-order to route the folder.

  ImageNow: Routing Folders 

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)

University of Wisconsin-Stout:  Index Standards for Perceptive Content (ImageNow)

• Employee ID:  ######## (eight digit number)  
• Payroll ID:  ######## (eight digit number)  
• Name:  Last, First (legal name versus preferred name)

• Funding:  ###-#-###### (FUND-PROG-UDDS)  (EX.  102-1-811001)  
• UDDS:  ######  (six digit number) (ex. 811001)

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:
  • 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.
• 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.

A virtual private network (VPN) is a technology that creates an encrypted connection over a less secure network. Using a VPN ensures the appropriate level of security to the connected systems when the underlying network infrastructure alone cannot provide it
