RFI DOL 2018-133 - NHDOL EDMS Upgrade Page 4 of 18

Document Name The database indexing attribute targeted for the label or description given to a document or form that is recognizable to a business user to identify and differentiate documents.

Document Separator

8 ½ by 11 sheets containing bar codes which get inserted into a stack of to-be-scanned documents. When scanned and read these bar codes indicate to the Scan Manager software the start of a new document.

EDMS Electronic Document Management System. The NHDOL EDMS also includes a workflow component.

FIFO First In First Out. A designated order for which Work Packets are listed in a Work List Queue.

Folder Separator 8 ½ by 11 sheets containing bar codes which get inserted into a stack of to-be-scanned documents. When scanned and read these bar codes indicate to the Scan Manager software the start of a new folder or Work Packet.

Forwarding Options A list of Work Functions under a given Process as possible options for sending a Work Packet when all processing under the current Work Function has been completed.

Indexing Type A database property identifying a list of attributes used for searching and finding Work Packets from the Workflow or Documents from the Archive Library.

Legacy System A series of Cobol applications driving all major business process for the NHDOL on an IBM iSeries (AS400) with a DB2 relational database.

Matching Criteria The combination of one or more indexing attributes of a Work Packet combined together to form a unique value throughout the entire workflow. This value is used to determine whether a new incoming document entering the workflow is associated with an already existing Work Packet and should thus be match together or merged.

Matching Task A Process Agent task using the Matching Criteria to check all Work Packets entering the workflow to determine whether a matching existing Work Packet already exists. When a match exists the task merges the incoming Work Packet with the existing one.

Memos A note pad area attached to a Work Packet for documenting events beyond the scope of the core software such as phone calls, meetings, etc.

NHDOL New Hampshire Department of Labor Process The term given to an instance having a unique workflow through

which Work Packets move through. A single Index Type may have more than one Process associated with it.

Process Agent A server or desktop with NHDOL EDMS software install. These Process Agents are responsible for running a variety of scheduled tasks against the NHDOL EDMS. The Process Agents are sometimes assigned a NHDOL EDMS queue which they are responsible for processing any incoming Work Packets.

Work Function The term given a step in a workflow Process with values such as Review, Research or Schedule.

RFI DOL 2018-133 - NHDOL EDMS Upgrade Page 5 of 18

Work List Queue A sub set of Work Packets within a Process designated by a Work Function. NHDOL staff are specifically assigned these Work List Queues and are responsible for performing the tasks associated within the Work Function.

Work Packet A workflow component used to describe what could be considered an electronic file folder used to contain all associated documents within an item such as a hearing case. These work packets maintain the documents in unity as they move through the workflow.

G) Existing markup stamps, such as “Rejected by DOL”, “Accepted by DOL” and “Already on File”.

7. Front End Application A) The existing system uses a customized front-end application

providing NHDOL staff a more user friendly functionality. B) This front-end application is written in VB6 so if we were to

continue with the Process360 software this would require a redevelopment effort.

C) Let me know if a demo of this application via a WebEx conference would be of interest. I have tentatively schedule a date and time of Tuesday February 27th 2018 at 9am for a demo if desired.

8. Document Scanning A) Each scanned document is tagged with a scanning batch

number and document number allowing for tracing back to the hard copy.

B) Scanning operator ability to print a scanner batch cover sheet identifying batch number, scan date, batch class, scan station, document count, page count, Work Function and scan operator for storage with hard copy scanned documents.

C) An option for scanning a stack of single-sided one page documents resulting in each page generating its own Work Packet for individual indexing.

RFI DOL 2018-133 - NHDOL EDMS Upgrade Page 7 of 18

D) An option for scanning a stack of two page/single sided documents resulting in every two pages generating their own Work Packet for indexing.

E) An option available for scanning a stack of one page/duplex documents resulting in each sheet generating its own two-page Work Packet to be indexed.

F) An option to scan a stack of documents made up of both single sided and duplex documents with designated Document Separator and Folder Separator sheets identifying the start of a new document or folder. Images not meeting the required content threshold shall be discarded automatically. These designated Document Separator and Folder Separator sheets shall be read, processed and discarded. The scanning of this type of batch should result in individual Work Packets for each Folder Separator sheet and individual documents within the Work Packet for each Document Separator sheet.

G) Scanning operators ability to prepare a batch of paper documents at their desks with inserts (separator sheets) identifying to the scanner where a one document or folder ends and the next begins.

H) Scanning operator ability to select an Indexing Queue Bucket to forward a batch or batches of scanned documents for indexing.

I) NHDOL Admin User ability to manage scanning options. 9. ImportWord Module

A) A critical VB.net module for generating, printing and importing numerous documents.

B) The module uses the WdApp.ini file, MS Word documents and Legacy System tables.

C) The Wdapp.ini file has multiple rows each containing a Legacy System table name, an MS Word document name and the workflow Process, Work Function and Indexing Type.

D) Each Legacy System table record contains indexing data required for the unique Indexing Type, data fields for merging with bookmarks and standard data fields for processing options such as number of copies to print, on/off indicator for tiff conversion, etc.

E) All MS Word documents are stored in a specific location on the network.

F) Module is scheduled to execute at time intervals based on a value set by a NHDOL Admin (currently every two minutes).

G) Module walks through the Wdapp.ini file one row at a time and searches the corresponding Legacy System data table for unprocessed records.

H) To process a table record it invokes MS Word, opens the appropriate MS Word document, merges data from the table into the bookmarks, creates a new Work Packet in the EDMS and imports the MS Word document into it, applies indexing data, prints copies when applicable and forwards the Work Packet into the workflow based on the Process and Work Function from the Wdapp.ini file row.

I) Module provides the flexibility to allow NHDOL developers to create new database tables and MS Word documents for processing without requiring any modifications to the module itself.

RFI DOL 2018-133 - NHDOL EDMS Upgrade Page 8 of 18

J) NHDOL Admin maintains the Wdapp.ini file and the execution interval value.

10. Desktop Imports A) A standard feature provided with the existing NHDOL EDMS software.

This feature allows business users to store incoming documents from emails on the network for automatic importing into the NHDOL EDMS.

B) This feature executes at time intervals based on a value set by a NHDOL Admin (currently every five minutes).

C) The NHDOL Admin is able to create as many instances of this feature as needed.

a. Each instance is configured to monitor its own unique designated folder on the network.

b. Each instance has a targeted Indexing Queue Bucket where it imports the document to.

c. The feature allows for applying attribute values to the Work Packet and documents.

11. Indexing of Work Packets A) This feature provides the functionality for the user to apply required

indexing values and property values to Work Packets prior to being forwarded into the workflow.

B) Work Packets enter this process from multiple sources, such as the scanning process, ImportWord module, Desktop Imports feature and from the workflow when re-indexing is applicable.

C) Work Packets may enter this process with zero or multiple indexing attribute values already applied. These attributes always remain open for the applying of different values.

D) The first step for the user is to select a workflow Process. E) The next step for the user is to select a document Name which is

filtered based on the workflow Process. F) The third step for the user is to apply indexing value. This process

interfaces with the NHDOL Legacy System database which contains the majority of all data values required for indexing. This interface allows the user to enter in one or two key data values for execution of sequel statements which extract the remaining data values from the NHDOL Legacy System database.

G) The final step for the user when all required indexing values have been applied to the Work Packet is to forward it into the workflow. These forwarding options are managed through an INI file based on workflow Process.

H) NHDOL Admin maintains the INI files used to manage the workflow Process selection, document identification selection and forwarding options.

12. Matching Task A) This task maintains a unique value based on Matching Criteria for

every Work Packet in the workflow and also maintains its location. B) Each Work Packet entering the workflow unless specifically excluded

goes through the Matching Task. C) The Matching Task creates the unique value for the incoming Work

Packet and then determines whether a matching Work Packet already exists.

D) When an existing matching Work Packet exists all documents within the new Work Packet are merged into the existing Work Packet.

RFI DOL 2018-133 - NHDOL EDMS Upgrade Page 9 of 18

E) When a match takes place the existing Work Packet is modified to reflect the matching along with a history record inserted to log the event.

13. Work List Queues and Functions A) Work Lists are defined by the workflow Process and Work Functions. B) Within each workflow Process there are three physical queues which

are the IN-Queue, HOLD-Queue and PEND-Queue. C) Within each of the physical queues there are multiple functions which

are defined by values stored in the data attribute Work Function on the Work Packet.

D) Work Packets reside in a queue and get forwarded through the work flow by altering the value in the Work Packet attribute Work Function.

E) Work Function values must be in synch with Forwarding Options. F) Each workflow Process has its own unique Work Function values. G) Business work groups are normally assigned to a specific workflow

Process, such as staff responsible for managing and working on Workers Compensation case disputes are assigned to the Workers Comp Hearing workflow Process.

H) Staff within a Business work group are responsible for one or more Work Functions within the work group’s workflow Process.

I) NHDOL business staff in performing their daily functions must access the Work Packets in their respective workflow Process and Work Function. To gain access to a list of Work Packets they first select their workflow Process from a drop down list followed by selecting their Work Function from a filtered drop down list.

J) A Work List is able to be filtered and sorted by any Work Packet attribute listed.

K) A Work List is able to work in two modes, Select Mode and Next Mode.

a. Select Mode presents the user a Work List of Work Packets and allows for selecting a single one.

b. Next Mode presents no listing but instead automatically opens and presents the user the next Work Packet from the Work List based on a FIFO basis.

L) NHDOL Admins maintain profiles which define permissions and access authority rights to these workflow Processes and Work Functions.

M) Work Packets are able to move between the three physical queues much like a hard copy case folder would move between the In-basket, Hold-basket and Pending-Action-basket of someone’s desk.

N) The PEND-Queue is also referred to as the Time Queue because Work Packets reside in these queues for a set amount of time. The event of this time period expiring causes the Work Packet to automatically get forwarded back to the IN-Queue.

O) When a Work Packet residing in either the PEND-Queue or HOLD-Queue has an incoming Work Packet match into it, it causes the Work Packet to automatically be forwarded to the IN-Queue.

P) When an event causes a Work Packet to automatically get forwarded to the IN-Queue from the PEND-Queue or HOLD-Queue the existing Work Packet is modified to reflect the Time-Out or Match action along with a history record being inserted to log the event.

RFI DOL 2018-133 - NHDOL EDMS Upgrade Page 10 of 18

Q) NHDOL Admins create Users and Profiles and links each User within a Profile providing the business user access and authority to their Work List and Archive Library catalog access permissions.

14. Archive Library A) The Archive Library is a long-term storage repository for documents in

the NHDOL EDMS. B) No Work Packets, only documents are stored in the Archive Library. C) When a Work Packet completes its work flow, such as when a case

dispute is completed and closed, the final forwarding option is Archive which initiates the Archive Process of moving all the case documents to the Archive Library.

D) In the Archive Process all the documents within the Work Packet are individually removed and stored in the Archive Queue along with their individual document attributes. The empty Work Packet and all its affiliated database table entries are then discarded.

E) Documents remaining in their native format such as MS Word or PDF get converted to TIFF prior to being stored in the Archive-Queue.

F) The Archive Task is scheduled to execute at time intervals based on a value set by a NHDOL Admin (currently every 12 hours, 4:30am & pm).

G) The Archive Task walks through all documents within the Archive Queue and stores the document image to the available Magnetic System Storage (MMS) medium located on a server. Affiliated database table entries allowing for future search and retrieval are then inserted. The Archive-Queue document and all remnants are then discarded.

H) Only document images and their affiliated indexing attributes for search and retrieval are stored in the Library

15. Global Search Function A) This feature allows users to search the entire EDMS both in the

Workflow and Library for Work Packets and documents filtered by one or more indexing attributes.

B) The search feature provides for full browsing of workflow Work Packets and Library documents.

C) The search feature works in conjunction with the Opened Work Packet function (see Opened Work Packet Function).

D) The search feature interfaces with the Export to Email/Network function (see Export to Email/Network Function).

16. Opened Work Packet Function A) When a Work Packet is opened from the work list it is place in such a

state preventing other users and functions from accessing it for editing.

B) The default order of documents within a Work Packet is FIFO. C) Feature allowing for manual rearranging of documents within Work

Packet. D) Multi-Page TIFF is the standard format for documents within a Work

Packet (multi-page not preferred) E) Some documents may remain in their native format while residing in

the Work Packet, such as MS Word, PDF, etc. F) Option to flag a document for conversion to Tiff (see Convert-To-Tiff

Function).
