The Fax Server, RightFax Edition Connector for SharePoint allows automation of repeatable document processes. For instance, a common loan process is the acceptance of a rapid credit review and prequalification request. These are typically received as completed forms faxed to the mortgage company. With the Fax Server Connector for SharePoint, these forms automatically appear inside SharePoint as captured images that can now participate in a review process and approval workflow. Enhanced image management is now possible with the Fax Server Connector for SharePoint as fax images delivered to SharePoint libraries can now conform to enterprise document policies, security and lifecycle management, providing improved compliance and accessibility.

 

What is RightFax Connector for MOSS?

Users can now create fax documents in Microsoft Office and send them out as a fax, or save them to SharePoint with the added security of keeping the original fax document in a SharePoint library. With OCR applications such as Single Click Entry, extracted metadata can now be populated to an InfoPath form or SharePoint library, providing the ability to perform enterprise search to drive alerts, RSS feeds, and synchronization with Microsoft Outlook® 2007 or other Office applications.

Why use RightFax Connector for MOSS?

Customers use SharePoint Server 2007 everyday for content management, enterprise search, and business process enablement.
