A document management system must be capable of being integrated into an existing IT environment. With DocuWare, you get optimum data and document exchange with third-party systems, side by side with minimum administration. The basis for this optimum integration in specific user environments is the numerous optional expansion modules over and above the many standard features and interfaces that DocuWare provides. These modules make it possible to customize the system to any individual requirements. A brief summary of these add-on modules is provided here. Detailed data sheets about each module are available for download.

	CONTENT-FOLDER CONTENT-FOLDER manages document- based business processes electronically by combining and distributing stored documents in virtual work folders. Task lists can be defined and assigned to employees; deadlines are easily and reliably monitored.			SDK Powerful API interfaces and OLE automation allow the main DocuWare functions to be controlled from other applications (TOOLKIT for C and VB, TOOLKIT.NET Interface and GAPI for C# and VB.NET)
	LINK LINK allows the full integration of archived documents in existing programs. In Windows applications, LINK displays linked archived documents at the touch of a button or copies search terms to DocuWare—all without any extra programming.			RECOGNITION RECOGNITION reads barcodes and text from scanned documents using OCR. This information is imported into predefined database fields for automatic indexing of documents.
	CONNECT to SAP With the SAP-certified interface CONNECT to SAP, DocuWare has enhanced SAP -with functions for archiving documents and data. Even without SAP, DocuWare can provide access to documents and easily integrate external scanning service providers.			CONNECT to Notes DocuWare imports e-mail and documents from Lotus Notes and archives them using the CONNECT to Notes addon module. These are categorized and indexed automatically using information in the e-mail such as sender and recipient. And vice versa, DocuWare sends scanned and archived documents for further processing in Lotus Notes.
	REQUEST DocuWare REQUEST makes complete file cabinets or selected documents available on CD/DVD. Convenient search functions as well as viewing and/or editing programs for different file formats can be added if required. Documents can be read without a DocuWare Client.			COLD/READ COLD/READ reads and archives the spool files of invoices, delivery notes, account statements and journals generated for printing by data processing systems. The data is reproduced in its original form by overlaying forms or letterheads.
	INTERNET-SERVER INTERNET-SERVER enables controlled access to documents stored in DocuWare from a web browser on the Internet or Intranet from anywhere in the world. The user functions for accessing documents are laid out as a Thin Client, which runs on any browser and any operating system.			AUTOINDEX AUTOINDEX imports information from other applications, such as financial accounting programs, and sends it to the file cabinet as indexing and search terms for documents.
	ACTIVE IMPORT ACTIVE IMPORT monitors folders in a file or e-mail system and imports the files stored there into DocuWare baskets and file cabinets. Documents are automatically indexed. ACTIVE IMPORT allows multi-function products (digital copiers) to be integrated in DocuWare, and supports Microsoft Outlook and Exchange as well as other MAPI mail systems.
