It implies that the new feature or program can be installed and used without problems. Contrast with "transparent," which implies that there is no discernible change after installation. of Enterprise Fax Management Solution from SCH SCH School SCH Schedule SCH Search SCH Semester Credit Hours SCH Santander Central Hispano (bank in Spain) SCH Socket Head SCH Synchronization Channel SCH Succinylcholine SCH Space Center Houston Technologies SCH Technologies, a leading vendor of open systems software products and services, today announced certification by SAP(R) (OBB OBB Oberbayern (German: Upper Bavaria) OBB Oriented Bounding Box (computer physics simulation collision detection) OBB Old Blue Box (Ragnarok Online Game) :SAPHY) of the Merkur(TM) SAP R/3 interface. Merkur offers SAP users the convenience and speed of electronic fax with seamless integration into the R/3 environment. With the SAP Certification, users are assured of a quality, turnkey solution for FAX communications that safeguards their existing installation and reduces implementation time. "Businesses are becoming increasingly aware of the enormous value of fax-enabling their applications across the enterprise," commented Earl Jones Earl Jones may refer to:
To certify Merkur, SAP formally evaluated and tested the software at a SAP regional Integration and Certification Center (ICC ICC See: International Chamber of Commerce ) against a strict, predefined test program for fax management. SAP recently added this category for formal certification, based on the SAPconnect communications interface. "Recognizing the value of fax solutions, SAP has now elevated fax management to a certifiable cer·ti·fi·a·ble adj. 1. That can or must be certified. Used of infectious, industrial, and other diseases that are required by law to be reported to health authorities. 2. level, and developed a certification program," added Jones. "Merkur entered the certification program immediately upon its announcement, and was among the first fax programs certified. This is a confirmation to SAP R/3 users that the Merkur solution is solid and robust." Merkur's easy-to-use graphical desktop interface and seamless R/3 integration make receiving and sending faxes as easy as E-mail. Merkur routes incoming faxes to the correct in-box, and a pop-up window pop-up window n (Comput) → Popup-Fenster nt notifies the user that the document has arrived. Outgoing faxes are sent as a destination in the R/3 output spooling (Simultaneous Peripheral Operations OnLine) The overlapping of low-speed operations with normal processing. Spooling originated with mainframes in order to optimize slow operations such as reading cards and printing. system with the same user interface as any printer. Merkur automatically schedules and transmits faxes, prints optional hard copies, and notifies the user via SAPmail upon the success or failure of transmissions. With the introduction of SAPconnect, Merkur also provides direct inbound routing of fax documents to SAPoffice users. Merkur features an exclusive Distributed Server Architecture (DSA (1) (Directory Server Agent) An X.500 program that looks up the address of a recipient in a Directory Information Base (DIB), also known as white pages. It accepts requests from the Directory User Agent (DUA) counterpart in the workstation. ) that allows R/3 administrators to install fax resources such as modem servers, document servers, and print servers as modules. This provides unlimited scalability throughout the entire worldwide enterprise. The architecture also provides for load leveling, distributing fax services around the enterprise to take advantage of available system resources (1) In a computer system, system resources are the components that provide its inherent capabilities and contribute to its overall performance. System memory, cache memory, hard disk space, IRQs and DMA channels are examples. and ensuring full-time availability. The Distributed Server Architecture provides centralized control while providing flexibility and complete desktop convenience. Centralized control enables administrators to access Merkur administrative management modules from any network access point. Through Merkur's graphical interface, they can monitor fax documents, view document log files, and perform administrative tasks. Centralization of fax documents on a fax server has another very substantial benefit to the organization: the documents are managed and protected as the corporate resource they are. Running as a background process on available system resources, Merkur automatically - and intelligently - routes incoming faxes. Merkur's routing rules can recognize the incoming phone line (via Direct Inward Dial support), the document's source, even bar codes. Users can forward faxes they receive, or create new faxes from documents they "own", or have access to any workstation on the network. Users can easily add comments or notes on forwarded documents. Merkur also provides automated outbound fax services including mass fax and fax back. Merkur is certified with the most popular SAP R/3 operating platforms, including UNIX UNIX Operating system for digital computers, developed by Ken Thompson of Bell Laboratories in 1969. It was initially designed for a single user (the name was a pun on the earlier operating system Multics). and Windows NT-based servers. Merkur client is compatible with Windows, DOS, ASCII terminals, and X-Windows workstations. -0- SCH Technologies (www.sch.com and www.merkur.com) provides software solutions and services that address open system needs in the areas of enterprise fax management, storage management/data protection, and distributed systems management needs of more than 5000 client/server customers in more than 30 countries.
