Introduction
LogicalDOC is a document management platform that allows you to optimize your research by searching through documents using parameters,
keywords, or content (full-text). The advantage of LogicalDOC is its simplicity in both data entry and document retrieval. LogicalDOC supports
following services:

Document Management
A. Full-text Indexing
One of the main features of LogicalDOC is full-text indexing of all documents to provide instant search results based on the content of files and
metadata. By leveraging the best of breed indexing technologies, LogicalDOC automatically indexes the complete contents of documents in the
repository. To maximize performances and increase concurrency, the indexing procedure is asynchronous with a configurable scheduling policy.
Different algorithms are applied depending on the language of the document so that the search will be very tailored and able to detect word variants
that are specific for a particular language.
Drastically reduces the need for data entry since the full content of a document is automatically indexed, and this is enough to find the desired
information

C. Version Control
LogicalDOCs Integrated Version Control automatically manages each version of a document as it enters LogicalDOC. Every time a document is
modified, a new version is produced and tracked. The document version is a
always visible the latest version is put forward for current operations while
previous versions remain viewable. Version control allows you to monitor when any change was made and who performed it. A new version is created
when a user changes metadata or when a check
check-out/check-in operation is performed. Check-out/check-in
in operations will also generate a new file
version.
Eliminates the need for ad-hoc naming conventions to manage file versions, such as inserting numbers or dates in the file name
View who made changes to a document, when, and what was modified
Feature Details
D. Document Searching
Search and retrieve documents is very simple in LogicalDOC, a quick search box is always available in the user interface allowing
allo
you to immediately
find your documents from wherever in the application. Full-text document searches on content and / or on any selection of metadata returns
immediate results. In addition you could use other search tools like the tag search that allows you to find all documents tagged with a specific tag.

ELECTRONICS
Search criteria can include everything from standard properties to custom template fields. Document searches are fast and results are immediately
returned. The results of a search are ordered by the core and a snippet is available for a better consultation.

E. Multi-Language Support
LogicalDOC is an international Document Management System that supports a wide variety of languages. Language support means more than a
simple translation of the user interface; it means LogicalDOC has the ability to appropriately manage documents in foreign languages by using
specialized indexing algorithms. This means you can feel at ease handling documents and correspondence coming from outside your country and you
will never have to worry about the language of your users since all of them can access a localized, comfortable user interface. Currently supported
languages include: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Chinese, Russian, Japanese, Danish, Norwegian, Arabic, Dutch,
Korean, and Swedish. LogicalDOC provides an on-line translation program that allows you to contribute localizations and add support for new
languages.

Barcode Recognition
Barcode Recognition feature, adds Linear 1-D and 2-D Symbols barcode OCR capability. Barcodes are recognized anywhere on a coversheet or
standardized form to ensure extremely high recognition accuracy. Each barcode can be used to populate documents metadata by injecting values in
each single document's attribute, even custom attribute. In conjunction with templates you will be able to automate data entry, saving a lot of time and
avoiding errors.

A. Task Manager
LogicalDOC provides the ability to schedule repetitive document management tasks using an internal Task Scheduler the administrators can
configure directly from the browser.
Page | 22
ELECTRONICS
For example you can use the this feature to automate document importing by monitoring a set of import folders that receives scanned files originating
from an MFP or from another application's output reporting process. A lot of business processes and administrative tasks can be automated using this
approach. Other important tasks you can schedule are the documents indexing, the statistics computation. You have a lot of tasks that can be
configured in order to get LogicalDOC working in complete autonomy.
All automatic operations can be scheduled to make the system autonomous and running without human interventions
Time consuming operations can be executed under the covers allowing the system to serve incoming users
Feature details
B. Duplicates Detection
LogicalDOC is able to manage high volumes of data, so you may want to check if you have duplications in your archive. This feature helps you a lot
since it allows to detect possible duplicated documents and shows them to you in a nice report where you can group elements by digest, title or file
name.

ELECTRONICS
Feature details
If you want to automate the assignment of custom identifiers to your upcoming or checked-in documents, LogicalDOC allows you to configure different
schemas specific to each document template.

Feature details
D. Clustering
A collection of multiple server computers into a single unified cluster provides added measures of performance, reliability, and fault tolerance. The new
LogicalDOC version take advantage of the performances increase afforded to virtual servers within the clustering environment. This is an important
step to achieve high levels of scalability, allowing handling huge installations made up by millions of documents and thousands of users.
You can scale up your Document Management System performances to adapt them to your organization's growth
You can implement a safer environment where if one of the nodes goes down, the others can continue to serve your users
Feature details
The LogicalDOC repository may span multiple volumes, so when a volume becomes full, you can add another disk and continue storing documents
into this new volume. As an interesting option for any volume you can choose to compress and crypt the saved information.
Page | 25
ELECTRONICS
High scalability by adding new volumes when you need more storage
Your document can be crypted so even if your server is hacked, no one can access your reserved documents
Feature details
F. Multi Tenancy
Normally LogicalDOC is configured like a single-instance single-tenant environment where each tenant (instance owner) runs a single instance that is
installed on one server or across a cluster of them. Of course LogicalDOC can also run multiple instances on the same server, separating content
stores and creating personalized clients environments in order to give you the following advantages:
The Multi-tenancy enables multiple independent tenants to be hosted on a single instance, which can be installed either on a single server or across
a cluster of them. The main instance is logically partitioned such that at each client it seems to access a dedicated and isolated instance of
LogicalDOC.
Feature details
Each tenant has its own data structure: users, documents, templates ...
Super users can switch from a tenant to another
Normal users can only access their tenant
Each tenant can be branded with custom logos
G. Professional Backup
Every days LogicalDOC helps your team to handle documents and now perhaps a lot of corporate processes rely on it. Have you took the time to
study what would happen if your LogicalDOC stops working due to a malfunction of the server's disk or other serious problem? The LogicalDOC
