WEST CALDWELL, N.J., Jan. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Ricoh Americas Corporation, the
leading provider of digital office equipment, announced today the availability
of an improved Dataworks3 ARCHIVE module for seamless integration with its
award-wining DocumentMall solution for on-line document sharing and
management. Combining a variable data printing middleware and a
software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution provides customers superb automation
capabilities and streamlines the collection and storing of important
transactional and promotional documents, eliminating time-consuming and error
prone manual intervention.
Variable data printing projects can involve large volumes of transactional
documents such as invoices, statements, and more. Since these documents may be
subject to regulations concerning retention and security, archiving is an
essential part of the business process as is the ability to retrieve any one
document to respond to an inquiry or request. To help businesses expedite this
task, the Dataworks3 ARCHIVE module can be configured to automatically archive
to DocumentMall's 24x7 online repository as part of the printing process.
Variable data used to populate these vital business process documents is used
for indexing in DocumentMall. Users can utilize the index values to search and
quickly retrieve a specific document from DocumentMall. In essence, businesses
garner enhanced search and retrieval capabilities, which previously cost them
excessive time and money as a result of unnecessary physical interaction and
hard copy output.
By automating document creation and storage, this integrated solution limits
access to information that may be subject to HIPAA or Sarbanes-Oxley
regulations and provides safeguards through user level authentication to help
increase compliance. Furthermore, due to its online presence and various
security measures, DocumentMall is an effective instrument in disaster
readiness and business continuity planning.
"Organizing document workflow is imperative to any business function as it
creates efficiencies that can reduce inaccuracies, streamline processes and
minimize operational costs," said Hede Nonaka, executive vice president, Ricoh
Americas Corporation. "Having the ability to integrate the variable data
printing capabilities of Dataworks3 with a powerful storage solution such as
DocumentMall provides additional value to our customers while helping them
achieve their information security, compliance and disaster recovery
objectives."
