Teambase.pumps Process Automation

Automate tasks that process and route files within your workflow. On unattended workstations, upload and download files, monitor hot folders, control external applications, run macros and scripts, generate PDF files, and schedule the generation of reports.

Teambase.pumps is designed for: Users of any other Teambase module who wish to automate production steps and rationalize other interactions between digital documents and your Teambase database.

For Example: A media outlet accepts press releases submitted via its web site. A Teambase.pump monitors hot folders and brings the files it sees into Teambase locations, and sorts them according to information they contain.

As part of its approval process, an agency wishes to generate PDFs of the documents it completes. Automatically when the sign-off process is complete, a Teambase.pump creates the PDFs and then imports and into the Teambase database, where they are full-text indexed.

Using a macro it developed in Microsoft Word, a legal office extracts data from hundreds of text files created from documents it OCR scans every day. The Macro formats the documents for consistency and extracts keyword data. By using Teambase.pumps, all files sent to a Teambase folder are automatically processed according to this custom macro, and when the document is closed the text is extracted and indexed. Text files dropped into a hot folder are cleaned up, formatted, mined for data, and made fully text searchable.

A packaging manufacturer wishes to receive regular e-mail notifications on the number of incomplete jobs and upcoming deadlines. Using Teambase.pumps, a query against the Teambase database periodically extracts a report and e-mails it to a department manager.

A Teambase.Online user wishes all files that are imported or edited to have current graphical previews, updated readable text, and be fully text indexed. A Teambase.pump monitors all files – page documents, PDFs, and Microsoft Office and Adobe Photoshop formats --  as they are updated and regenerates image thumbnails and re-indexes their content.
