New Functions and Options

  • Document-based workflow integrated into Release 5.0
  • Linux and Sun Solaris system platforms supported
  • Extensive integration of the XML standard

The architecture of the SAPERION® DMS solution is designed to provide a knowledge platform for all company data across departments, functional areas and locations.

New key functions and tightly integrated standard applications increase the usability.

Technical Superiority of DocFlow

The DocFlow function in the release 5.0 is based on the creation of fully integrated document-based workflows, which are simple to use, install and configure. This functionality simplifies typical business processes, for example, document signing and forwarding or reminding functions.

DocFlow Designer

The DocFlow Designer allows you to generate typical routine processes and to depict standard processes using graphics. DocFlow is a simple to use standard solution for the optimization of everyday business processes. The new DocFlow Server works through automatic procedures in the background.

One special advantage of the DocFlow solution is that compared with the classic workflow systems from other developers, standard situations can be depicted within the framework of complete solutions for document and knowledge management. This is achieved without making the entire system more complex.

At the same time all documents have the advantages of archived documents from the very start as well as the corresponding revision security.

Linux and Sun Solaris

Another new feature in SAPERION® 5.0 is the standard support of Linux and Sun Solaris system platforms. The server support of the system platforms enables a considerable increase in performance. This is a great improvement especially for large companies with high numbers of users.

SAPERION® InterServer

The SAPERION® InterServer option provides a convenient means to import data to SAPERION® from any external archive. This functionality is especially recommended if SAPERION® is used as the document management system while using a third party product as archive for data that has been accumulated in the past.

Mobile Client

The mobile client option allows the transfer of a selectable client license to an offline workstation, including selectable document that can be edited or created.

MS Office Interface

This module connects Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook to the SAPERION® DMS.

XML

The decisive advantage of XML is that XML is the global standard format for saving data with any data structure complexity. Through the use of XML the actual data (content) is separated from its presentation, allowing for greater data security particularly for systems with long-term use.

SAPERION® has thus taken an essential step towards securing the future of your software architecture by means of standardization, for example, portal solutions in conjunction with the SAPERION® DMS.

Support of KM tools and Verity

Through the integration of KM tools, e.g. Autonomy, it is possible to automate business processes, which are based on unstructured data. This includes categorization, linking, personalization and provision of information.

SAPERION® offers you extended search options in addition to intelligent form recognition and classification of documents.

Creating personal profiles also allows adaptation to users’ own individual needs. Define agents which automatically notify you about specific information and data.

In addition to its existing retrieval functionalities, SAPERION®’s use of Verity Full-Text database offers an extremely powerful option for refined searches of any document type and contents within the SAPERION® DMS.

Increased Fail-Safeness while allowing High Availability to Users

The security of your data is further increased while at the same time the availability of your data to users is extremely high due to the enterprisewide knowledge platform. Additional measures include:

  • Clients automatically switch to the next document server should a document server fail.
  • One server can support multiple jukeboxes.
  • Remote administration via MS Management Console.

Improved Administration and User Management

The range of administration functions using the Microsoft Management Console has been expanded. For example, additional servers can be defined and managed using the MMC like the ODBC connections and archive protocols. The extended user management also allows expiry dates for passwords and memberships to be introduced.

Folder Procedures/Links

We have substantially expanded the folder management and document structure management and made them programmable (e.g. for internal folder procedures and access authorization).

You can now manage links to other documents across tables and archives. Additional New SAPERION® Features

  • COM interface: Extensive expansion of API.
  • Integration scripts: Now available encoded.
  • Lotus Notes Bridge Server: This new server can be used to archive all Lotus Notes document types in SAPERION®.
  • Lotus Domino.Doc Interface: This additional option integrates the archiving and searching of Lotus Domino.Doc documents in the Lotus Notes environment.
  • New HTML Gateway Server: Now also available in “multi-threaded” operation.
  • MS Exchange Server Gateway: Integration of MS Exchange Server

New User Interface

SAPERION® sports a new, modern user interface making the use even easier.
