Chapter 1
Overview
This export connector copies document images, OCR text files, Kofax PDF documents,
eDocuments, and writes data from Kofax Capture or Kofax Express into IBM FileNet Content
Manager.
Features
This section contains information about features provided with Kofax Export Connector for
IBM FileNet Content Manager.
Kofax Values / IBM FileNet Content Manager Properties
You can link Kofax Values to IBM FileNet Content Manager document properties and folder
properties. Examples of Kofax Values include Document index fields, Folder index fields,
Batch fields, Kofax Values, and Text Constants. If you are using Kofax Capture, the names
of “required” IBM FileNet Content Manager properties within a document class or folder
class are marked with an asterisk (*), giving you a visual indicator that certain fields must be
linked.
Kofax Values {Document GUID}
The {Document GUID} is a value that can be used for index fields and export values. It
is a type of document ID that is unique across the central site and all remote sites that
comprise a Kofax Capture installation. This Document GUID is the concatenation of the Batch
GUID and the document ID number. For example, a Batch GUID of {D3C58EE2-5627-443b-
BBFA-EE7A5790482A} and a document ID of 123 will yield {D3C58EE2-5627-443b-BBFA-
EE7A5790482A} 123 as the Document GUID.
Document Storage
You can specify new or existing folders for storing documents in the IBM FileNet Content
Manager object store for export. You can use Kofax Values to specify a document name or
folder name.
Folder Creation
When exporting to user-defined folders, the export connector searches the IBM FileNet
Content Manager object store to locate a folder based on the Folder Name property and the
location of the object store.
If the folder is found, this folder is used for export. The existing properties of the folder do not
change, even if Kofax Values are linked to the properties for the folder.
If the folder is not found, a new folder is created in IBM FileNet Content Manager using the
values specified at export setup.
