InnoCielo Publisher

InnoCielo Publisher is an optional add-on to InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise which automates the rendering and publishing of engineering content in various formats.

Engineering content is in continuous change. Drawings, data, technical asset information, related files and other documents are created, updated, reviewed, released, revised and archived. At certain points in their lifecycle engineering documents must be handed over to other departments within the organization, or stakeholders outside the organization. In many companies this is a cumbersome, manual or unstructured process.

In the publishing process, engineering documents are rendered into universally readable formats and stored in a target system, such as a Windows folder, an FTP site, Microsoft SharePoint, IBM FileNet, EMC Documentum, or InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise itself.

InnoCielo Publisher and its relevant modules make it possible to automate the publishing process, triggered by predefined document lifecycle events or on an ad-hoc basis.

New Features in InnoCielo Publisher 2009

InnoCielo Publisher 2009 has been enhanced with the introduction of the following new modules:

Microsoft SharePoint Publishing module

This module allows users to publish rendered and native content from InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise to Microsoft SharePoint Server 2007. Documents can be published to Document Libraries in Microsoft SharePoint, to a default folder location, or to a location calculated from properties or path. InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise properties can be mapped to SharePoint properties during this process.

IBM FileNet Publishing module

This module allows users to publish rendered and native content from InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise to IBM FileNet Panagon Content Services 5.4 and 5.5 and IBM FileNet P8 4.0. Documents can be published to Object Stores in IBM FileNet, to a default folder location, or to a location calculated from properties or path. InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise properties can be mapped to FileNet properties during this process.

EMC Documentum Publishing module

This module allows users to publish rendered and native content from InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise to EMC Documentum 5.3. Documents can be published to Docbases in EMC Documentum, to a default folder location, or to a location calculated from properties or path. InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise properties can be mapped to EMC Documentum properties during this process.

 

InnoCielo Publisher 2009 also comes with several other enhancements. For example, it is now possible to publish specific document revisions instead of only the latest revision. Additionally, new options have been added to the Publish to Vault module that allow for the publication of document history and the synchronization of document status properties in the target and destination vaults.

“InnoCielo Publisher is a useful extension to InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise which we currently use to manage about 280,000 technical documents. InnoCielo Publisher provides us with a standard approach to the high volume printing of our project documentation and integrates with our system to produce neutral PDFs for easy distribu-tion. With InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise at the front end, InnoCielo Publisher operates invisibly in the background and sends our publishing require-ments to our servers in a wholly automated process, cutting out the need for manual, time-consuming effort.”
