What features do you need for an effective enterprise content management solution?

Submitted by Steve Robbins

You need affordable document and content management software that is so easy to install and use that you can rapidly deploy it in one department, or across your entire enterprise, without costly on-site assistance.

Users should be able to use their browser to search and view documents so little or no end-user training is needed for those users.

There should be no charge for these search users or seats.

You should be able to instantly image-enable your accounting, ERP (Enterprise Resource Program), GIS (Geographical Information System) or other applications, so you can search and view your documents directly from any software application.

The solution should be fully scalable, so it can be deployed in one department, or enterprise-wide.

The solution should be hardware independent, so you can use the scanners and MFP copiers of your choice, procured from your favorite hardware vendors or manufacturers.

You should be able to scan, OCR, index, search and protect documents, and optionally route both paper documents and Microsoft Office documents to different departments or individuals.

Indexing is the optional assignment of fields, such as document type, date, and customer name.

You should be able to automatically index and route documents using barcodes, Zone OCR, or reading the fields from other computer applications.

Is this type of capability on your wish list for this year? Millennium’s Search Express provides these and many other important capabilities.

Let us show you how we can integrate our Sharp and Lexmark MFPs (multi-function printers) and our document management system for an effective solution. Contact Millennium Business System at 513-924-9600 or email solutions@getmillennium.com

What is Overlay?

Submitted by Steve Robbins

The Overlay feature allows you add dynamic information such as a mail merge to static information such as a one page form letter or invoice.

Here are some examples of how we helped clients using the Overlay Feature:

Client 1 is using dynamic information from a program that only moves the billing information (variable Data) and they were printing 2 copies onto a one part form. This customer evolved into using a Fiery Print controller several years ago for creating a form as a master and placing the dynamic information via the Master Process (variable data) , at cost of approximately $3,500 per MFP. Since it was a one page document we demonstrated the capability of the overlay, saved them on the monthly payment and increased efficiency.

Client 2 prints raffle tickets using dynamic information from a program that only moves the ticket information (variable Data) and they were printing onto a single sheet form containing the ticket numbering. This customer evolved into using a Fiery Print controller many years ago for creating the tickets as a master and placing the dynamic information via the Master Process (variable data) , at cost of approximately $3,500 per MFP. Since it was a one page document we demonstrated the capability of the overlay, saved them on the monthly payment and increased efficiency.
