Xtrata - Advanced Forms Processing
 |
For years, forms processing software has promised to save companies fortunes in data entry and operational costs by automatically capturing data from paper forms and delivering it into business applications. But the systems have been expensive to buy, difficult to set up, a hassle to maintain, and unfriendly to use. Not any more. Ascent® Xtrata™ makes forms processing truly realistic by overcoming the barriers that keep most organizations from even trying to implement forms processing: complexity and cost. |

Xtrata- A Powerful New Approach to Forms Processing
With most traditional forms processing systems, you must design your forms in the system, print them, and then scan them to see if the system can find the fields that contain the information. If the printing or scanning are even a little bit off, the system won’t find the fields, so you have to adjust the system and try again. You test and tweak until the system finds the fields, and then you’re finally ready to go. At least until you reprint the forms, or normal scanner wear causes images to shift or stretch, or you use a different scanner, or you use multiple scanners in distributed locations, or you add a new form or change an existing form. Any variation in your printers, scanners or forms can require manual processing, expert assistance and more setup and maintenance. Not exactly what you bargained for when you purchased an “automated” system.

Xtrata automatically identifies the zones and suggests field names based on the values in the zones. It also suggests a recognition engine for those zones as well. |
Ascent Xtrata eliminates all that. It uses exclusive Xtrata technology from Kofax to make forms processing successful under real business conditions. With Ascent Xtrata, you can use your existing forms and business processes because setup is a breeze. It automatically identifies all zones on a form. You just click on a zone, or use the lasso to select multiple zones, and Ascent Xtrata instantly suggests the associated field names and recognition profiles. That means you can add new forms or make a few changes to an existing form without intervention from an expert. |
