IndeXML

This application is designed to reduce the time associated with the traditional manual population of data and document repositories. IndeXML assists users with indexing tasks, by simplifying data entry and expediting quality control during document scanning operations. It can also be used for batch indexing previously scanned documents, prior to uploading into the Docbase. This module can be configured in accordance with the type of documents to be scanned, and encapusulated data can be easily uploaded into a Docbase.

XML Interface

This information transfer tool uses XML (eXtensible Markup Language) as a data exchange format. XML is a WEB enabled standard, adopted by most software editors, who have announced support for this protocol in the next release of their tools. XML Interface is used for automatic Docbase population, where the organization and structure of document attributes and contents are formalized in XSL (eXtensible Sheet Language) Style sheets. This flexible application can also be used to configure and maintain a Docbase for Users, Groups, ACLs, Cabinets, Folders, Routers, Workflows, etc.

Hyperviewer

This document base browser provides a means of navigation through the Docbase using a graphical interface. Navigation is enhanced through the use of hyper-links that give access to other documents, lists of documents, databases and external applications. Navigation in the Docbase is oriented by job discipline, such that access to the information is based on the "point of view" (process, electrical, mechanical, etc.) of the user.

Stepway Operator

The operations module is designed to assist in the organization and management of data and documents using an Operations and Maintenance Logic. It is designed to deal with the day to day tasks associated with the operations and maintenance of an industrial production facility. StepWay Operator makes use of the visual search capability of Hyperviewer to quickly locate data and documents pertinent to these tasks. The maintenance of a facility is greatly enhanced through faster, easier and more reliable access to the required information.

 

StepWay Engineer

This application provides an interface to the Docbase with an Engineering perspective. With this tool, the user can handle documents listed in registers; locate, sort and/or extract groups of documents; track versions; handle transmittals; store comments related to documents; and monitor the progress of database population. StepWay Engineer is designed to manage documents, whether as electronic files or paper hardcopy. It also assists the user in the preparation of project data books (End of Project File, Maintenance Engineering, etc.).

 

Stepway Finder

This specialized search table makes use of industry related criteria (System, Area, Discipline, Tag Number, PO Number, etc.) to quickly and easily locate documents in the document repository. StepWay Finder can work directly with the Docbase or with a subset of the document base, delivered on a CD-ROM or via the WEB. This application provides a common and industry-oriented interface to all participants in a project, whether or not they have access to the Docbase.
