Datacap Releases Rulerunner Quattro

Improved performance for high volume capture

Many Datacap customers have extended their systems by adding additional documents and new applications. Of course, like eating too much at Thanksgiving dinner, one side effect that can happen when you approach capacity is a slowdown in performance. Though it won't fall asleep on the couch, Rulerunner, the engine that drives recognition and other background tasks, can begin to exhibit signs of sluggishness. 

Rather than invest in additional hardware, Datacap users can run on multiple virtual machines, or now, they can take advantage of Datacap’s exclusive Rulerunner Quattro virtual recognition machine technology.

Rulerunner Quattro delivers virtualization inside of Taskmaster by utilizing the multiple processors available on many computers. You gain the benefits of virtualization technology without the expense and complexity of multiple computers or multiple virtual machines. Rulerunner Quattro’s virtualization technology provides significant benefits to both the department processing documents and the organization’s IT department:

• Complete your document processing work faster. Faster turn-around of documents such as claims, contracts, tax returns and invoices improves responsiveness and shortens capture cycle times.
• Reduce the number of physical computers dedicated to the capture process.  One multi-core computer can effectively replace and cost less than multiple single-processor computers delivering a server-room/IT "friendly" solution
• Reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) by improving utilization of existing IT assets and IT staff efficiency.  The small hardware and software footprint of Rulerunner Quattro is less expensive than alternative virtualization solutions.

Taskmaster Flex

The Most Intutive Solution Yet for Automated Indexing and Document Separation

One of the highlights of the Taskmaster 7.5 is the new feature known as Flex, which leverages Datacap's unstructured forms innovations, like Click N Key and Intellocate, to automate indexing. You can see Flex and it's document separation tool, FlexID, demonstrated in a recent webinar on the Datacap web site.

Taskmaster Flex provides a handy "Flex Configurator" for easy set-up of data location rules, validations and other OCR-assisted forms processing techniques.  The great benefitr of Flex is the ease of set-up, delivering the benefits of programming without any programming required.

See the 45 minute webinar on Taskmaster 7.5 new features, with a significant portion devoted to demonstrating Flex and FlexID.  Click here.

Introducing Taskmaster APT

Accounts Payable Technology is State Of The Art Invoice Capture

The other major new application in Taskmaster 7.5 is an upgrade of Datacap's acclaimed Taskmaster for Invoices, built to run in the Datacap Studio web-service environment. This new version brings many new enhancements gathered over many implementations, including a new interface, improved fingerprint management, and the best capture of line items, even from multiple page invoices, in the industry.

Datacap will be unveiling Taskmaster APT in a free live webinar on Thursday, December 4, at 2 PM ET. Our headliner will be Andrew Bartolini from AberdeenGroup, the premier analyst covering AP automation as a trend. Aberdeen's studies are frequently quoted by press and business strategists.

Andrew will highlight findings and trends from the most recent study, "The E-Payables Benchmark Series: A/P Strategies For Success," which features two Datacap end users Goodyear and Exel Transportation. Find out the Best Practises for AP in a shrinking economy.

The recent study includes an evaluation of more than 450 enterprises and distinguished Best-In-Class organizations by two key performance criteria: The overall cost of processing an invoice and the overall time to process an invoice. The report includes recommendations that any AP department would do well to heed.
