Greetings.

Perhaps a weird request, but here goes.

I’m wondering if it’s possible to have GlobalScan (either Server or Serverless) do a lookup against a CSV file to return field values based on an entry made at the MFP control panel. I know the answer lies in the Metadata section, but it’s clear as mud.

I have a school system that has all of their students in a SQL table (easy enough to export to CSV) and they will be scanning student records to Document Mall / RCM. GSNX connects quite easily on that end.

They only want to enter a student ID number at the copier, and have the remaining 4 fields auto populated.

The docs aren’t regular or clean enough to do the job with OCR.

I’ve been through the manuals, and played with my NFR copy of GSNX Server, which is at the current version of 2.5.

I can do this with my eyes closed in AutoStore, (and other solutions), but Sales had other ideas. (Read: “cheap”).

Thanks!
