Xerox Workflow Central is a productivity platform which grants users access to a bunch of extremely useful tools—but the platform is so much more than a simple bundle of apps. This platform is a wonderful way to quickly, easily, and affordably start using a cutting-edge document processing system for organizations of any size.
As you may recall from our recent blog post, Serious About Productivity? Your Team Needs Xerox Workflow Central, the Xerox Workflow Central platform is a fantastic way to increase productivity for you and your entire staff. It does this not just from its selection of tools and intuitive user interface; a lot of the power comes from the combination workflow feature, which we’ll explore in just a moment.
First, let’s highlight one of the most useful tools in the platform: the automatic document summarizer tool.
How the Automatic Document Summary Feature in Xerox Workflow Central Works
The automatic document summarizer tool in Xerox Workflow Central works incredibly well; you start by feeding the app a document either digitally present on the local machine, your cloud storage service, or your local network, or by simply scanning a hard copy document. The app then produces a remarkably accurate point-by-point summary of the contents within that document. It works well for even long and complex documents.
Users have the choice between two different modes of summarization. In one mode, the tool is given free range to change words and phrases in the document to a shorter equivalent; this is great for general documents where the big picture counts, rather than precision. The other mode disallows the tool from making any changes to words or phrases, which can result in a summary which is harder to read at times, but makes sure that no words are edited, which can be important for documents with lots of technical jargon or where precise wording is important.
You Can Do Even More With Your Automatic Document Summaries With Combination Workflows
As we said, combination workflows are were Xerox Workflow Central really starts to get impressive. Essentially, the feature allows you to run a document through multiple apps in the platform.
This means that it’s possible to take a summarized document and automatically run it through any number of other tools available in Workflow Central. For example, suppose you wanted to listen to the audio version of the summarized document—you can do that, automatically. Or how about if you need to translate the summarized document from English into one of dozens of other languages?
A combination workflow will allow you to run a document through a predetermined number of tools, getting the resulting format in just a few seconds. It’s a seamless, incredibly convenient way to get the documents you need when you need them.
