Reform Automated Archiving - a typical Reform scenario

A purchase order agent has just received a purchase order. Usually, he will enter in the purchase order, print it,walk over to the fax machine and manually fax the PO. However, with Reform, the purchase order agent's job is finished once it is entered into their order entry system. There are many ways in which Reform is able to capture the information from an accounting system. One way is running FabSoft's utility program that captures the printer port. Instead of the purchase order ending up at the dot matrix printer, it is captured and sent to Reform. Reform will process it against the pre-defined Reform template that adds logos, font size changes and lines. Most importantly, it will extract the fax information for the purchase order such as company name, contact name, fax number, subject, notes and cover page name. The new reformatted purchase order and the specific fax information is sent to the fax system with all of the necessary information. The next copy is sent to the Archive storage system, with the important information used for the special index fields and the last copy is sent to a printer and is duplexed. All of these actions occur automatically without any intervention from the user.
