Unstructured Forms Processing

Datacap Taskmaster forms processing software increases data accuracy and reduces the cost and processing time for "unstructured forms" such as invoices, shipping documents, mortgage documents, insurance files, and Explanation of Benefits (EOBs). Taskmaster's rules-driven capture workflow is easily tailored to fit dynamic business requirements. By combining the best OCR and ICR recognition "engines" with a standard library of hundreds of script-based rules to find and validate data, Taskmaster handles all your data capture tasks, including scanning, image enhancement, document ID and classification, recognition, automatic validations and look-ups, verification and delivery and export to document management systems and business applications.

Taskmaster also provides:

• Integrated distributed dapture with browser-based scanning and indexing
• Complete solution with robust forms processing: high volume document and data capture in a single product with OCR, ICR, OMR and barcode recognition
• Low cost of ownership with a concurrent licensing model and no dongles or "per click" pricing
• A flexible, scalable and efficient deployment
• Quick and accurate capture, recognition, and delivery

Datacap Rules Increase Data Accuracy

The Challenge of Unstructured Forms
Highly variable documents, such as order forms and invoices, cannot follow traditional forms processing technologies. These documents have free flowing formats and may have a changing set of data elements. Since a company cannot predict how the form information will be presented, Datacap Rules examine text and layout characteristics to provide a complete automated forms processing solution for unstructured documents.

Datacap Rules put you in control
Datacap Rules allow YOU to control how data is located on each page. In a point and click interface, you can direct the processing to find fields by navigating the page. Without rules, you have you rely on your software vendor to understand all the possible ways your documents work and then deliver a "black box" solution.

Datacap extends rules beyond simply finding data. You can use rules to control all aspects of background processing, including image processing, page identification (vendor matching), recognition, field finding, validation, and export formatting. Because rules are under user control, special situations, such as when a vendor's invoice requires unique image processing settings, can be implemented without any scripting.
