Meta Information
AXIS 7000 only
The Meta Information functionality allows the Developer, System
Integrator, Administrator etc. of the AXIS 7000 Network Document
Server to define a list of information to be requested (it can be required
or optional information) from the user at the moment of scanning. The
user will be prompted for this information before the document is
scanned and sent over the network.
This section describes Meta Information from the perspective of the
Developer/System Integrator/Administrator and the user.
The Meta Information will be sent together with the scanned image in
the Information File or as a separate document to a different
destination. The Meta Information file format is specified by the
Developer/System Integrator/Administrator in XML, HTML or almost
any other text format. The Developer can also choose to send
information set by the AXIS 7000 itself, e.g. a time stamp or user
identification.
This Meta Information can then be used by different applications such
as accounting software, workflow systems, archiving systems,
document management systems, imaging systems, knowledge
management systems etc or for storing in a database server.
Note:
Specifying the
Meta Information
(XML DD File)
The administrator defines the list of requested information that the
user is required to enter before scanning the document. The user is
prompted to enter the information by messages on the AXIS 7000
Document Server control panel display.
• The Meta Information functionality requires that there is a keyboard connected to the
AXIS 7000. If the Meta Information functionality is enabled and you do not have a
keyboard connected you will receive the Error Message “
Meta Data Enabled. Key-
board required
”.
• XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is used as the language that defines the
requested information.
