Kofax Ascent Capture provides fast and reliable scanning of documents in batches, including optical character recognition (OCR) and intelligent character recognition (ICR). The TRIM Context 6 Kofax Xtension allows the easy capture of both documents and metadata directly from Ascent Capture into the TRIM Context 6 ECM repository. The TRIM Context 6 Kofax Xtension is delivered as a Kofax Ascent Capture Release Script, developed and supported by TOWER Software.
Metadata Capture
Metadata can be captured automatically through zonal OCR, for example for standard forms processing. The text in the form fields is extracted by Ascent Capture and written directly to the relevant fields in TRIM Context 6. Field mappings can be defined at the Ascent Capture batch class level, which allows an organization to define different mappings for different forms.
Metadata can be entered manually, if required, at Ascent Capture's Validation or Verification stages. Manually entered metadata can be validated against TRIM Context 6's control tables before committing it to the repository.
Document Capture
Scanned document images will automatically be stored with the captured metadata at the Ascent Capture release stage. Images can be transfered into the repository as *.tif, *.pdf or *.jpg files.
Post-Registration Document Capture
Many organizations decided to deliver incoming mail directly to the action officers, who read and register it and later submit it for scanning. This is made easy through the combination of TRIM Context 6's barcode printing and Ascent Capture's barcode recognition.
Once the desk officer has registered a document in TRIM Context 6, a barcode can be printed for it. If this barcode is scanned alongside the document, Ascent Capture can recognize it and automatically release the scanned image by assigning it to the pre-registered metadata profile in the repository.
