How Does It Work?
MonsterScan is an intelligent application that provides unique and speedy methods of scanning and storing data.
1. Scan By Case
Documents need to be associated with a unique identifier or id where scanning is done by the case (Normal Scan), depending on the industry.
For instance, Identifiers can be:
- in the legal industry, the unique identifier can be 'case number'
- in Health Care facilities/hospitals the unique identifier can be 'patient id'.
- In case of Real Estate transactions, the unique identifier can be, 'Loan number'
Categories and Subcategories can be:
- Legal industry - No fault, Personal Injury, Bodily Injury etc, wherein subcategorization may be on the basis of Summons, Affidavits, defendant answers, discovery etc.
- Healthcare facilities/hospitals - Pathology, Radiology, Ultrasound etc., wherein subcategorization may be on the basis of Blood sugar, CBC, X-Ray Chest, X-Ray Abdomen etc.
Any general scan can be stored in terms of |LS|id|RS|,|LS|category|RS|,|LS|sub category|RS| and not dependent on limiting parameters of a specific industry. Its usage facilitates the user's ability to control and manage documents effectively, which garners structured workflow within the organization.
Aptly put, MonsterScan is an Industry Neutral Application, serving all domains.
2. Scan By Barcode
The inbuilt 'Barcode Separator Functionality' allows integrated job separation through the insertion of a specially coded page between documents in a stack before scanning. Once scanned, the software uses these pages to determine when a particular set begins and ends. Hence, many documents can be scanned at once instead of single doc scanning.
Scan by barcode mode can further be configured to automatically create a directory structure in a format like |LS|current date|RS|,|LS|id|RS|,|LS|category|RS|, which facilitates organization by folders. The beauty of this significant feature is that it allows documents to be scanned by classification/categorization and stored accordingly in respective folders. Scanning by Barcode is beneficial where several documents are to be scanned. In which case, the said documents can be grouped/categorized together by the generation of a barcode.
This format also benefits users ranging from Legal, Healthcare, Real estate, Financial firms to many small business workgroups.
