Editor's Notes
Multiple, programmable interfaces, from GUIs to portals, can be used to intuitively export in a variety configurations and formats.Enterprise Server (API) ILINX Export Enterprise Server provides an easy and consistent interface for the retrieval and display of images/documents from Oracle ECM repositories through standard Web service applications. To economically service a large number of external users, connection pooling can be utilized to reduce user access loads.Workstation (UI)Installed on end-user desktops, Workstation—or stand-alone mode—of ILINX Export allows individuals to access groups of documents from Oracle ECM software, then output the documents to a desired location, using meaningful file names. Using the querying power of Oracle, this flexible product extracts lists of documents, which can then be filtered manually.

Enterprise Server (Sequential or Portal) Export Allows users to export documents from a point in the past based on the desired RecID, to the presentWorkstation (Varied or Prompted) Export Allows users to utilize Predefined Saved Searches to perform one-time searches based on parameters they setEnterprise Server (Programmatically or API or SDK Mode) Web Service Gives users the exposed code (foundation) or SDK to configure the application in a way that is custom for them The trigger is another program, not the user
From the ILINX Export Jobs screen, you can see what jobs you have and what mode they are in.You can view their statuses, the last date the job was run and the type of job it is (Sequential or Varied)From this screen you can select one of the buttons to Create a New Job, Edit a Job, Copy a Job, Delete a Job, View a Job, Run a Job, or Stop a Job.
When you Create a New Job or Edit an Existing Job, you must give the job a name. You must also determine if you want the job to run in Sequential or Varied Mode.Sequential mode allows users to choose a specific point in the past (represented by the RecID) and export all the documents from that point to the present.Varied mode allows users to export documents based on search fields and parameters set up in the Saved Searches. This is a one-time search.A Web Service Activation ID is generated for the job.
Users are then required to login to ILINX Export using their Oracle IPM User Name and Password.They also have access to their Saved Searches.
The Index Settings screen allows the user to determine where to save the document index metadata.Users can save this data to a Microsoft SQL Server Table, a CSV file, or they can choose not to save any document index data.
This screen allows users to map fields from Oracle IPM
Users will need to move indexes over from the Available Oracle IPM Index Fields, into the Oracle IPM Index Fields to Output. These fields will appear in the CSV file, and the user will need to determine the order within the Output table in which they want the indexes to appear in the CSV file.
You will need to determine the following things: The location of the Temporary Working Folder The format you want the files exported in (PDF or TIF) Whether or not to include annotations when the documents are exported The Output Folder Structure
Users will need to choose whether to use a Network Path or an FTP location to transfer exported files
If Sequential mode is selected, you will need to determine how often and at what time the query will run.
If Varied Mode is selected, users will then have to give values that ILINX Export will search on, based on the Predefined Saved Search the user selects.The results of the search will appear in the Oracle IPM Search Results window.
The Export Settings screen summarizes all the settings the users has determined
For those users who want to configure the application, they can use the exposed code or SDK at the API level.This trigger is another program
