Welcome to our presentation of report and output management within an enterprise content management ecosystem.
Most organizations have computer generated reports and documents that are used in business processes across the organization but stored outside of the ECM repository. This presentation will show you how you can automatically bring this content directly into Alfresco so that is only a click away from all the capabilities of Alfresco for collaboration and workflow.

Let’s take a closer look at the landscape as it currently exists…
Every business has and creates a tremendous volume of content. With today’s desktop programs like Microsoft’s Office Suite and Apple’s iWork, virtually every employee is a content creator. If properly configured, ECM’s do a fabulous job of managing digital assets, document scans, office documents, and archives in a secure repository.. Implementing an ECM provides a valuable platform for information governance, search, taxonomy and metadata development, collaboration and workflow. Documents stored in this enterprise content management system are made available through a presentation layer that users can access easily. Versioned documents are at the center of this collaborative ecosystem, where the versions represent an evolution of documents toward a single output.
Enterprise Report Management solutions focus on large, computer generated generational reports. Created by computers, but for human users. In these systems, ERP’s, HRM’s, CRM’s, ad-hoc reporting systems and users generate reports that are generational. A sales report would be a good example of a generational report. It measures a snapshot in time, and is static….the numbers don’t change for that generation. In this scenario, the only way to apply the strengths of the ECM solution to reports is to manually input them into the ECM…costing time and money. In addition, this really only allows for report storage, and does not allow for the pinpoint security and analysis that most businesses actually need.

OPIN’s Reveal for Alfresco provides an integrated solution to the ERM and ECM siloes. Utilizing both ECM and ERM’s strengths, the best capabilities of both systems come under one roof.
You’ll see improved workflow for users, with the ability to access enterprise reports and documents within Alfresco – no manual retrieval or rerunning of on demand reports. You can also use Alfresco with these documents for collaboration and records management, with the ability to automatically extract static data from enterprise reports and create custom views in spreadsheet form for analysis. You’ll reduce core business system licensing fees – no need for core business system licenses for people who only need to view the reports. And, importantly, you can monitor report usage activity – which reports are accessed regularly, and by whom.
And Reveal brings other powerful tools to the workplace as well! ViziDex™ also known as Visual Indexing, is a process in which report content is parsed and the content data is de-normalized for data analysis purposes. This de-normalized data can be easily displayed in a grid format on UIs, exported to databases, Excel and other applications. ViziDex™ can be leveraged for context sensitive search, data query, filtering, sorting and other functions. Our customers have found this to be both an innovative and incredibly valuable tool in their business process! You will also add generational report management to your ECM system.

As you can see, there are many benefits to marrying Alfresco’s ECM solution with OPIN’s ERM solution. Together, you get a centralized repository and a single user interface for unstructured and semi-structured content, a lower cost of ownership, increased productivity and an all around better user experience. You’ll also be able to better leverage Alfresco’s features and functionalities on your production reports and leverage ERM features such as ViziDex on your ECM content. This is a HUGE win for your internal business processes, and for your customers!
