Description:
4matix has been working with ApplicationXtender (AppEnhancer / Banner Document Manager) since the early 2000’s when it was owned by OTG. We have successfully converted many AX systems (formerly Legato – Documentum – EMC – and now part of OpenText) to a variety of ECM platforms – either on premise or hosted.
AX was and still is a very popular application in many verticals. Most of our conversions have been in the Financial Services (Banks and Credit Unions), Government, Healthcare, Education and Energy & Gas sectors. That said, we can convert legacy AX data from any vertical or horizontal business function. Though AX has a storied optical platter history – most AX systems today are on magnetic storage but still utilize .bin files, proprietary COLD (Computer Output to Laser Disc) compression [COLD is now referred to as Report Management or ERMXtender] and proprietary annotations.
COLD:
Many AX customers utilize COLD (Reports & Statements) in many of their installations, a core component of AX. We have had great success converting AX COLD data. Converted COLD data can be COLD processed into a new ECM platform or imported as a complete document into any repository or long term storage application – ECM – Line of Business or Share. Additionally – we have been able to break up large COLD Statement runs (Print streams) and deliver them as individual documents.
This process is most useful when taking large single statement runs, bills or other large multi user single print streams and breaking them into individual documents. Many of today’s platforms do not support some of the older COLD functions requiring a different approach from simply decompressing COLD files to a single print stream file.
We have utilized this process in converting COLD data from a variety of platforms and for several different document types – to include Bank Statements and Hospital Invoices. When replacing a system that utilizes COLD data – it’s important to understand your conversion options and the requirements or maybe limitations of your new system when dealing with these types of documents.
Annotations:
Another often used feature in AX is annotations. Customer’s utilization of annotations has made them a critical part of the business record. These annotations need to be maintained with the underlying document. We can convert these annotations (such as stamps, highlights, text, notes, redactions, etc.) into a format utilized by other ECM application. Our live annotation deliveries, or annotation layers (not burned into an image), have been successfully ingested into such systems as OnBase, FileNet P8, ORACLE UCM and Docuware. Live annotation deliveries greatly enhance the usability of the new system and allow for a single imported document to remain the single source of truth.
