Index
The purpose of the Index module is to build the lookup values or index fields for each image. These values support query and retrieval of the images by multiple users if the images are migrated to a content management system. Thus, the accuracy and relevance of selected index fields for each capture profile determines the retrievability of the images. Index values are also commonly referred to as metadata.
The Index module makes the index process as productive and accurate as possible with sophisticated functions, such as sticky fields, auto-incrementing fields, list boxes, bar code fields, multiple database lookups, required fields, input masks, zonal OCR, zoom-assisted keying from images, and more.
Manual indexing can be slow and tedious without the Index module, which speeds up key entry, increases accuracy, and in some cases, performs automatic indexing. The benefit of the Index module is the catalog of metadata per document and/or folder for use in accurately retrieving the archived images from an external content management system after migration.
