Introduction

Enterprise Content Management - ECM - is a term defined in 2005 by information professionals that has been in competition with other concepts such as EDRMS or ERMS. There is a lot of literature with terms related to document management, such as ECM, EDRMS, ERMS, DM, KM among others, more influenced by marketing rules rather than objective reasons.

OpenKM is an ECM software, however we prefer the term EDRMS ( Enterprise Document and Record Management System), perhaps with lesser success on the marketing world but from our point of view more strict and representative.

Some of the challenges of Enterprise Content Management (content management systems):

  • Having a tool that supports a strategy within the organization.
  • Simplifying corporate management processes.
  • The capture, management, storage and preservation of content.
  • Managing unstructured information throughout the entire life cycle.
  • Including mechanisms or tools for collaboration within the organization.
  • Managing bussiness processes through Workflow or BPM solutions.
  • Offering services to several processes of information management.

Automatic cataloging

OpenKM tasks are based on document events - for example: a firewall paradigm concept to validate the rules and apply some actions - and helps you to automatically set your business logic. You can set rules based on events and, for example, move documents to new destinations, change security, and apply document transformations (converting to PDF with group4 compression) among others. Thanks to the OpenKM plug-in architecture, it is possible to make it easily extend these functions.

Automatic metadata capture

OpenKM Zone OCR - Optical Character Recognition - is a data capture and document process. It is designed to transform streams of documents of any structure into business-ready data. Thanks to our OpenKM architecture it is possible to integrate this with commercial technology like Abby Flexicapture, Kofax and Cognitive Forms among others.

Classification of business activities

The classification of business activities acts as a powerful tool to assist the conduct of business and many of the processes involved in the management of records:

  • Providing linkages between individual records that accumulate to provide a continuous record of activity.
  • Ensuring records are named in a consistent manner over time.
  • Assisting in the retrieval of all records relating to a particular function or activity.
  • Determining security protection and access appropriate for sets of records.
  • Allocating user permissions for access to, or action on, particular groups of records.
  • Distributing responsibility for the management of particular sets of records.
  • Distributing records for action.
  • Determining appropriate retention periods and disposition actions for records.

Version control

Version control is the management of changes to documents. Changes are usually identified by a number or letter code, termed the "revision number". Each revision is associated with a timestamp and the person making the change. Revisions can be graphically compared side by side and also reverted.
