Document Management System
Requirements
Desktop Requirements
The browser software may be run from any computer that can
satisfactorily run a compatible browser. If a user will need to access MSDS PDF images, Acrobat
Reader will need to be installed on the desktop. No other software or plug-ins are required on the user's desktop.
DocMgr has no client side java or VB Scripts. There is a
little JavaScript used in the browser to improve the user interface. All computations
on performed in the SQL database and all programming is handled on the web server.
[The following only apply to In-house Software Implementations.]
Web Server Requirements
DocMgr is a 100% browser-based solution which has been engineered to run on
Corporate Intranets and the world-wide-web (www).
DocMgr web pages are designed to work on a
Windows server running
Microsoft's Internet Information Services. DocMgr utilizes Microsoft's Active Server Pages
and SQL statements to communicate with the DocMgr database.
Sizing of the web server depends on your
plan for DocMgr. A dedicated web server is rarely justified.
Quite often the web server and the database server may be the same
machine. As we work to determine the
customer's needs and plans for
DocMgr, LOGICAL will work with the customer to help determine
the server hardware requirements.
Network Environment
A TCP/IP network is required to run the DocMgr
browser-based software.
User Security
DocMgr incorporates its own user security. Therefore,
there's no need for the database administrator to become involved,
as users are added/modified/removed from DocMgr.
Supported Databases
DocMgr has been designed and tested to work with
MS SQL databases. The following versions of MS SQL are currently supported by LOGICAL:
One of the above databases is required for the software. Since the
maintenance and support of the database, itself, typically requires that
someone be trained and serve as the DBA - Database Administrator,
most corporations have selected one of the above as their corporate standard.
If your company has no one trained to serve as the DBA for the DocMgr database,
or no extra staff to assign to this task, you may be a better candidate for LOGICAL's
Hosting services, where LOGICAL
hosts DocMgr for your corporation's use.
