Product Rebranding & Rollup of Product Updates [Summer 2021; v21.1 through v21.3]

It’s now August, and we’re slowly coming up for air from a very fast-paced and productive first seven months of the year. A first half of the year that saw a new product release (connecting Oracle EBS to SharePoint for attachment migration), significant improvements to Oracle EBS Printing, and a rebranding of several of our products and modules.

Product Naming

As we continue to improve our products and further integrate the major product lines, we decided to rebrand several of our product lines. The following products received name changes:

AventX Print XpressAventX for Oracle EBS Windows Print Module

File Management Improvements

New Product Module: Oracle File Attachment to SharePoint Migration

Our newest module for AventX A2A seamlessly integrates Oracle EBS with SharePoint to streamline document processing and archiving workflows. The module automatically migrates File Attachments from Oracle to SharePoint, then reinserts URL links to Oracle EBS as Web Page Attachments.

This module supports long-term archiving storage for compliance, reduces to database space used by File Attachments, and improves the end-user experience for managing and maintaining documents. Additionally, power users can use SharePoint’s workflow features to create automated document processes with the documents now in SharePoint.

Oracle EBS Printing Improvements

New Product Module: Print Oracle EBS Reports directly to Windows Printers

Currently, users of our “Local” print module (AventX Print Xpress) can print Oracle EBS report output to a locally defined printer or preview it on their screen. With the latest releases of AventX, this module gains some significant product improvements and a new name.

Meet AventX for Oracle EBS Windows Print

This updated AventX module provides end-users the ability to submit print jobs directly to any Windows printer. Printing options include (NEW) submitting batches via Windows Print Server (completely bypassing CUPS), printing to locally defined printers (in the office or at home), and displaying/previewing the report output on their Windows or Mac.

The AventX Windows Print and Preview module now makes the job help desk and system administrators easier by streamlining the entire print process from Oracle EBS. Moreover, the product now includes a utility to help map Oracle EBS and Windows Printers, eliminating the need to manage printers in Linux/CUPS.

Document Delivery Improvements

Securely Deliver Documents via SMS

Users of AventX with Secure File Transfer can now deliver PDF files securely via SMS links to track delivery and views. This functionality utilizes Email-to-SMS technology to ensure your documents get delivered to your recipients quickly and in a manner that best suits their needs. So whether it’s shipping documents, invoices, or more, this streamlined method gives you another option for meeting your customers’ unique needs.

Respect Hunt Group Fax Lines

Many customers have found fax deliverability issues—primarily delays—when sending large volumes of deliveries to the same number. When AventX identified a “same” number, it would hold the fax until the number was “free” again. However, as many high-volume fax users know, fax numbers can often be associated with “Hunt Groups,” a single published number that receives the inbound call (i.e., fax) and quickly routes it to an available phone or fax line. Customers can now identify these “Hunt Group” fax numbers in the AventX configuration. When these numbers are recognized as a Hunt Group, AventX can more quickly process the faxes, ensuring they are delivered promptly.

AventX for SAP Now Supports Multiple Email Recipients

AventX for SAP ERP users with our AventX Core product line now can associate multiple email addresses with a single fax number. Assigning numerous emails addresses to a single fax number ensures you can meet your suppliers’ and customers’ requests and helps to ensure that your document is received.

Electronic Signature Improvements

Deliver via DocuSign to Multiple Recipients

Not all documents that need to be signed are created equal. Some require signatures from a single signer, such as a President or VP. Others, such as a terms and conditions file, likely need a simple acknowledgment by one of many potential recipients. AventX now works with DocuSign’s native “Signing Groups” functionality to allow any recipient to sign the file electronically. Whether the document is sent to two or two hundred, it’s considered complete once the first recipient signs it.

Deliver Documents via DocuSign with Additional Remarks

AventX now offers the ability to pass additional content in the body of a DocuSign email transmission. Previously, AventX passed limited information about the sender, recipient, document, and document name in DocuSign’s email body. Now users of AventX can configure the system to include additional remarks or comments in the body of the email generated by DocuSign to provide helpful information to the recipient.

Work Order Printing/Management Improvements

New Work Order Filtering Options with AventX Mobile for eAM

The latest release of the AventX Mobile for Oracle eAM app adds additional filtering options to make it even easier to finds the work orders important to you. Earlier versions of the app allowed users to filter for work orders based on the Organization, Department, Resource, and the Asset itself. However, every maintenance department is unique! So now, in addition to these original options AventX Mobile for eAM introduces options to filter work orders based on views like those available in Oracle eAM self-service. The addition of filters based on “My Open Work,” “My Department Work,” and “Today’s Work” will allow AventX Mobile users to easily find the work orders central to their specific job.

File Extraction Support for ETQ

AventX can now extract files from ETQ, a third-party quality management system, for inclusion in work order packets. With this enhancement, customers storing critical file attachments in ETQ can dynamically retrieve files, convert them to PDF (if needed), and deliver them to recipients via email, fax, and networked printer.
