Installing the Document Pipeline Remote Interface

The Document Pipeline Remote Interface is an HTTP\HTTPS connection to a Document Pipeline that is installed on a different computer. With the Document Pipeline Remote Interface, documents can be sent from the scan station to the Document Pipeline using HTTP\HTTPS.

The following components must be installed and configured on the computer hosting the Document Pipeline:

• OpenText Runtime and Core Services (Java and Tomcat need to be installed)

• OpenText Document Pipeline Perl

• OpenText Document Pipeline Base

• At least one “real” OpenText Document Pipeline, for example the OpenText Document Pipeline for SAP^® Solutions.

• An HTTP\HTTPS connection between the scan station and the Document Pipeline computer must be possible.

Note: It is not necessary to install any additional components on the scan station.

You can obtain the installation file for the Document Pipeline Remote Interface (dp_remote_interface-<version>.msi) in the OpenText Knowledge Center (https://

knowledge.opentext.com/knowledge/llisapi.dll/open/14711031).

The installation of Document Pipeline Remote Interface is described in OpenText Document Pipeline - Installation Guide (AR-IDPDP).

Installing Enterprise Scan Webinterface

The Enterprise Scan Webinterface module brings scanning capacity to the Content Server user interface. The indexing feature is also available. Users can scan an image and run an indexing session in the same user interface.

Content Server must be installed before installing the Enterprise Scan Webinterface.

To install Enterprise Scan Webinterface:

1. Start the setup program directly via <CD-ROM>:

\OT_SCAN_MODULE_10.2.0\escanwebinterface_10.2.0_WIN.exe. The Enterprise Scan Webinterface installation wizard opens and guides you through the installation.

2. In the Content Server administration dialog box, click Install Module.

3. From the list of modules that are available for installation, select the Enterprise Scan Webinterface module, and then click Install.

4. Restart Content Server.

Now the module is installed and listed in the installed modules.

Archive Monitoring Web Client

It is a graphical user interface for monitoring the Document Pipelines and additional data.

Archive Server

Archive Server stores documents on long-term storage media. It consists of server software and services, a database instance, connection to and management of storage systems, and administration tools.

Archive Mode

Specifies the different archiving scenarios used by Enterprise Scan. The archive mode is configured in the OpenText Administration Client.

Barcode

During mass scanning, Enterprise Scan can detect barcodes or patch codes and separate the documents automatically. Then the barcode or patch code is displayed in the ^Index field of the Properties tab.

Batch

Hierarchical document attribute in Enterprise Scan. In the hierarchy of attributes, batch is located above folder. Hierarchical attributes can be assigned to documents automatically during scanning or manually. The attributes are displayed in the Properties view.

Capture Center

Capture Center is a solution for automatic document classification and data extraction using optical character recognition. Enterprise Scan and Capture Center work together to automate ingestion of documents into repositories and of data into business solutions.

Configuration files

Configuration files contain configuration information for a particular program.

When the program is executed, it consults the configuration file to see what parameters have been set. Important configuration files for OpenText Imaging Clients are the install.ini file, which contains the installation configuration for Windows Viewer, DesktopLink, and Enterprise Scan, and the ^viewer.cfg files, which contain the configuration information for Java Viewer and Web Viewer.

DocTools

Programs for automatically processing documents in a Document Pipeline.

CLES100200-IGD-EN-2 OpenText Imaging Enterprise Scan 41

Document Group

In Enterprise Scan you can subdivide documents in several groups. These groups can be used to divide the archiving tasks between several employees.

Document Pipeline

A collection of processing modules (DocTools) that are used, for example, to transfer or otherwise process documents to and in the Archive Server.

Document Stack

All scanned or imported documents that are currently displayed in Enterprise Scan.

DPDIR

The directory in which the documents are temporarily stored while being processed by the Document Pipeline.

Endorser

Some scanner models support endorsing, a process in which a stamp that is printed on each scanned sheet to confirm scanning. The endorser is displayed in the Properties tab in Enterprise Scan.

Enterprise Scan

Short name for OpenText Imaging Enterprise Scan. It is a component of OpenText Imaging. Enterprise Scan is designed for mass scanning scenarios: you can scan documents from various input sources, sort them into documents, and then archive these documents.

FaxLink

Functionality of Enterprise Scan that connects Enterprise Scan to fax or mail servers, such as Microsoft Exchange Server, or Lotus Domino Server.

Folder

Hierarchical document attribute in Enterprise Scan. In the hierarchy of attributes, folder is located below batch. Hierarchical attributes can be assigned to documents automatically during scanning or manually. The attributes are displayed in the Properties view.

Index

Special collection of information used to locate documents or data objects more rapidly during searches.

The scan operator can define the index information in a form before archiving the document. The fields of this form are defined in Enterprise Scan itself, with the TCP Modeler or on Content Server.

The term Index has also a second meaning in Enterprise Scan. In the Index field of the Properties tab, the recognized barcode or patch code is displayed. For more information, see Barcode.

Indexing

Provision of additional information (index) to speed up search functions. When record properties are indexed, values are entered in the properties fields of the records. In general, user input is required here, or the values are automatically extracted and entered from documents or from their context using special processing modules, for example in a Document Pipeline.

Leading application

Software solution connected to a Content Server product, for example SAP, Siebel, or Microsoft Office SharePoint Server.

OpenText Administration Client

Administrative tool for setting up and maintaining the Archive Server and its components, such as archives, devices, disk buffers, jobs, archive modes and users.

OpenText Archive Monitoring Web Client See Archive Monitoring Web Client.

OpenText Imaging Enterprise Scan See Enterprise Scan.

Patch code See Barcode.

Servtab files

Configuration files of the Spawner, which specify which DocTools and processes to start and how to start them.

Spawner

Service that starts and terminates the DocTools and processes of the Document Pipelines.
