SimulScan document capture: SimulScan enables you to extract critical
information from documents by processing them in real time. It is part of a
powerful suite of enterprise-grade tools embedded into your organization software.
This tutorial film demonstrates key features of the SimulScan software to help
capture and process documents effectively and validate the results
thereafter for maximum accuracy. Let's get started. SimulScan is embedded
within your organization's software application. There are many different
types of documents that can be processed, just like the ones that you use
day-to-day. Your application has been set up with the required template. To capture
a document simply press the trigger or a button on the app. Once started, you'll
see our full screen camera-based SimulScan interface that is going to make it easy
to capture, process, and validate your document. This interface has been
specially designed to quickly and easily capture all the information you need and
efficiently process it for the most accurate results. We have three main
areas: a header bar that will update you with information like the type of
document you are capturing, a main screen area that will remind you of what you
need to do and highlight your capture area, control icons that are easy to
reach with your thumb, a settings option allows you to personalize SimulScan to
best suit your needs. To capture data place the form on a flat surface. It
helps if there's a good contrast with the edge of the paper. Rotate your device
camera or the document so that the orientation on both are the same. For the
best results try to utilize as much of the screen as possible. Just like taking
a photo, distance is key: not too close and not too far away. As a first step,
SimulScan will identify the form. The title in the interface header will
confirm that you are looking at the correct document that SimulScan is
expecting. The green border indicates the target size and orientation of the
document. The green border tracks the document detected. Please ensure you
the largest possible green border on your device. If a bounding border is
absent, SimulScan will look for the contrasting border instead. Alternatively,
if you are trying to decode multiple barcodes or picking one bar code from
many, just ensure that you can see all the barcodes on the screen. We've
included a flash setting to help capture data in low-lit environments. And zoom
is really handy if your form is a little crowded. SimulScan is able to tell that
you're ready to capture when you hold the device still or if you have this
feature enabled tap on the screen to capture your document. To save you time,
if SimulScan cannot get a good image a timeout will abort the scan. You can
adjust this in the settings area; it's that easy. Here are some troubleshooting
tips: SimulScan will always try to identify then process your document. If
for some reason you don't see the green frame or you're unhappy with the results
of your scan, please check the following: are you looking at the right form, are
you framing it correctly, is the contrast good, is the form damaged, have you tried
to rescan? If you are still having problems, please contact your
organization's IT support. Once the document has been processed you will be
able to verify your data immediately. Sometimes we may need your help
understanding the content. SimulScan will highlight in red the areas of the
form that need your attention. Just check the content, input the correct values, and
hit OK. For your convenience, the original document scan is inserted into the
interface, making it easy to refer to it. The red headers will turn gray after you
have verified the content. Verification allows you to quickly catch any errors
at the scene before submitting it to your application. This also improves
accuracy. When everything is in order simply press accept and you are ready
for your next scan. Don't forget you can always rescan your document if you need to. SimulScan can
dramatically improve the efficiency and speed of your day-to-day work by
extracting and processing documents in real time The user interface was
specifically designed to make this process
easy and improve your day-to-day work flow. SimulScan: for more information
