Clearview Software—the leading provider of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions centered around Microsoft technologies including SharePoint—proudly announces Clearview ECM 5.0, bringing to market a new Business Process Management module as well as intelligent indexing and index validation, external data access, compatibility  with Kofax 8.0, and more.

Business Process Management (Workflow)

The most anticipated feature of the Clearview 5.0 release is the Business Process Management module, or Workflow, which enables organizations to automate repetitive business processes for an immediate return on investment through increased productivity and business intelligence.

Automating business processes across an enterprise requires the flexibility to connect business roles, rules, and users. With Clearview, Workflow Administrators can quickly access an Administration Console to design workflows, which can be associated with a specific content item or assigned to a Clearview user (from the Active Directory), or group of users in a specific queue.

Information workers who can participate in the workflows can quickly access the BAM to monitor the progress of their active workflows. Workflow Administrators can benefit from using the BAM to monitor all workflow activities and view real-time graphical insights (charts and tables). BAM charts and reports can be exported to Microsoft Excel for analysis or reporting.

Intelligent Indexing and Index Validation

When adding ad-hoc content to Clearview through the Clearview IRISS desktop gadget or the Document Import feature in the Clearview Client, the interactive Intelligent Indexing feature automatically inserts index values that were obtained from an external data source (examples: ODBC database or flat file) and based on key lookup values. In short, by entering a single index value, all remaining index values are automatically populated for the information worker, saving valuable time and ensuring accuracy.

Other Enhancements

- Kofax 8.0 compatible
- Document repair extended to the Clearview Web Client
- Clearview IRISS Desktop Gadget Quick Search inheritance
- Clearview ECM and all third party toolkits are enhanced to 64-bit. Processing time is faster than ever.
