Alchemy 9.0 Release: Good News for People with Paper Problems
Tens of thousands of businesses around the world already use OpenText’s Alchemy Server to manage their critical documents. On April 18, 2012 new features in the areas of capture, access, workflow and retention were released as Alchemy 9.0. See the full press release here.
Alchemy 9.0 is a simple solution for managing documents. Any business that relies on thorough and precise tracking of records will benefit from Alchemy’s unique capabilities. Here are a few of them:
• Alchemy 9.0 captures and archives paper or electronic documents from MFP, desktop, back-office and third-party applications.
• All of your documents reside in a single, centralized database.
• Full-text search allows “Google-style” search of all documents just by plugging in a word or phrase.
• Alchemy 9.0 helps you create simple workflows so documents are automatically routed to the correct decision-makers depending on their status (e.g. “accepted” or “rejected”).
• Retention utilities let you manage the lifecycle of your documents from creation to deletion based on any criteria you choose (e.g. you can tell Alchemy to delete certain records days, weeks, months or years after a chosen event).
Immediate benefits include reduced payroll burn from manual document management like faxing and filing; reduction of paper and paper-related supplies; less hardware and maintenance on MFPs and fax machines; and audit-readiness for less risk of compliance failure.
Alchemy is particularly useful for small- to medium-sized businesses with an internal or mandated need for secure document management. Healthcare, legal, financial and manufacturing institutions in particular face severe fines for improper, inaccurate or incomplete document access and management.
We are very excited about this release and the enhanced capabilities of Alchemy 9.0, and you should be too!

Customers,
Please let us know what you think of Alchemy 9. I am also interested to hear from those who use Alchemy as part of an Accounts Payable or Accounts Receivable process, something that Alchemy 9 is particularly well suited for.
