Kofax Mobile Capture -Technical Session Tamim Aziz Solutions Enablement Specialist Ethan Brunning Sr. Sales Engineer - Mobile Applications
Agenda • Demonstration Considerations • Mobile Demonstration • Kofax Front Office Server Overview • Kofax Mobile Capture Overview • Creating a Mobile Capture Demo
Kofax Value • Kofax Front Office Server extends existing business processes to customer-facing employees. By simply dropping documents into an MFP feeder, they can initiate transactions, workflows and capture processes at the earliest point of contact. • Kofax Mobile Capture turns a smart phone or tablet into a sophisticated scanning device which not only captures a document, but also cleans it. With this, field representatives or customers themselves can capture documents, photos and data to initiate critical business processes at the earliest point in the process.

Configuration Settings • This is where the global preferences are setup • MFP Self Registration must be enabled
Kofax Front Office Server Configuration • KFS must have “Enable MFP Self registration” selected • Images from mobile devices will not be processed by VRS on the KFS server. • KFS Shortcuts (called “Case Types” on mobile) are obtained by the mobile application. • KFS “Scan Time Image Process” setting will be sent to the phone.
Auto Launch with Custom URL • Auto Launch feature allows KMC to automatically open and pre-fill index fields for an existing case • The custom URL begins with kmc://? (there is no domain, port or path after the slashes) • Use Case: Trailing Documents
Auto Launch with Custom URL continued • The custom path can contain the following three names Note The case type with the correct fields must exist on the device to launch with a URL. So, the user must have logged in to KFS and that user must have access to the case type.
Auto Launch with Custom URL Examples • kmc://?case_name=Insurance%20Claim • This will just open a new case with case type of “Insurance Claim” • kmc://?do_capture_and_process_images=false&case_name=Insurance%20Claim&case_field=PolicyNum|12345&case_field=Insuree|John%20Smith • This will open the “enter case information” screen for the Insurance Claim case since the do_capture_and_process_images is false. • kmc://?case_name=Insurance%20Claim&case_field=PolicyNum|12345&case_field=Insuree|John%20Smith • This behavior is similar to the previous example but it will use the default application settings since none was defined
