lnitial situation and challenge

One of YHA’s primary requirements was to deploy a single uniform solution for application across majority of the companies in the ASAO Group to enhance process efficiency while still catering to the specific lingual needs of each country/location. That is where Symtrax emerged as a resourceful partner.

Solution presented by Symtrax

Following an extensive evaluation of various solutions, YHA chose Compleo as the competent solution. One of its appealing functions is that printing a document triggers Compleo to capture the document and format it as per the designed template specific to their business needs. The intelligence is built into the system to identify the templates to be applied, and the result to be printed on the designated printer. This is configured by analyzing the business rules and converting them into smart instructions for the desired output.

• Enhances processing speed through the extended run time provided by Symtrax, effectively managing the high volume of documents produced by advanced architectures in parallel processing and intelligent load balancing.
• Reduction in size of invoices and other documents, resulting in value creation for the business.
