Business workflow automation

Syntext Flow.
Connect document work from intake to outcome.

Coordinate document intake, data preparation and system handoffs in one workflow. Flow connects the steps across your business and brings exceptions to the people who can resolve them.

Email, documents and systems feed Syntext Flow: collect, process and update connected systems, with a human review path for exceptions.

How Syntext Flow works

From request to a visible result.

  1. 01

    Start

    A schedule, trigger or request begins the process.

  2. 02

    Gather

    Collect requests, email replies and attachments.

  3. 03

    Process

    Classify documents, extract information and update connected systems.

  4. 04

    Resolve

    Bring in a person for exceptions, then deliver the consolidated result.

Product features

Make the connections work together.

Prepare information before the next system needs it

Connect document intake to the lookups, transformations and checks your process needs. Flow coordinates configured remediation steps and routes unresolved information to a person before the next handoff.

Illustrative Flow preparation: intake, business-data lookup and preparation. Ready information proceeds to handoff; information needing attention goes through human review before handoff.
Configured starts
Begin a workflow from schedules, triggers or an agreed request.
Sequenced steps
Coordinate the order of work, dependencies and progress from request to result.
Email coordination
Send email requests and process replies and attachments within the configured workflow.
Document work
Classify documents and extract the agreed information where the process needs it.
System exchange
Use scoped APIs and file transfers to move information between agreed systems.
Customer-specific RPA integration
Where APIs are unavailable, Syntext can assess a customer-specific RPA approach, configure the required steps and validate them during implementation. Compatibility and ongoing support are agreed for that system.

Coordinate the handoffs

Bring AP Automate, Scribe, business systems and human decisions into the workflow where they are needed. Track progress and exceptions across the sequence rather than losing the work between systems.

Requests and documents enter Syntext Flow, which coordinates separate handoffs to AP Automate, Scribe, human review and business systems as needed. These are optional connections, not a required product sequence.
Human exceptions
Route unclear or blocked work to a person with the context needed to decide.
Operational visibility
Track progress and provide configured reports and notifications.

Scope the real process.

Syntext maps the trigger, sequence, system boundaries, human decisions, exception paths and useful reporting before implementation.

APIs and file transfers are assessed against your systems. Where an API is unavailable, a customer-specific RPA approach can be configured and validated during implementation. The supported steps and maintenance needs are agreed with you.

Syntext Flow questions

Can Syntext Flow be used on its own?

Yes. Flow is independently available. It can also complement AP Automate or Scribe where a process needs coordination across people and systems.

What can start a Flow workflow?

A workflow can begin from an agreed schedule, trigger or request. The start condition and the sequence that follows are configured for the specific process.

Can Flow coordinate email requests and replies?

Yes. A configured workflow can send email requests and process replies and attachments, while keeping progress and missing responses visible.

Can Flow classify and extract documents?

Flow coordinates document classification, extraction, business-data lookups and transformations where the workflow needs them. It can connect AP Automate or Scribe to the surrounding process, with the required checks and review boundaries defined during implementation.

What happens when the workflow cannot continue?

An unclear, missing or blocked step can be routed to a person with the available context. Exception ownership and the action that resumes the workflow are agreed during implementation.

How does Flow connect with existing systems?

Scoped APIs and file transfers can exchange information with agreed systems. Compatibility, access, mappings, retries and failure ownership are confirmed for the actual integration.
