Forms-driven Business Process Optimization

Features That Matter™

Formatta includes easy-to-use, straightforward Features That Matter™ and does not overburden your staff or
users with complexity.

Digital Signing
Formatta's patent-pending digital signing feature allows users to take advantage of electronic signatures
securely and inexpensively.

Authenticates log-in credentials, populates signature fields (e.g., name, title, and time/date stamp)
then signs and locks the form using the server-based digital certificate for integrity.

Significantly more cost-effective and simpler to deploy and maintain

Requires only one server-side certificate for all users.
Eliminates the need to purchase a X.509 digital certificate for each individual user. Instead,
end users are authenticated with their ID/Password and “signed” using the single, shared
digital certificate.
Integrates with your existing ID/password infrastructure (e.g., Active Directory, LDAP, or
custom)

Autofill
Auto-populate data, such as employee data, part numbers, options or prices, into user screens upon
download or on-demand, based on user actions.

Autowrite
Auto-write data to other applications and databases upon every submission or based on, easy to use
processing logic, or approvals

Security
Formatta products deliver comprehensive security to ensure data that is captured, approved, and moved to
applications meets stringent enterprise-class standards.

Encryption: Uses 128-bit encryption for protection, privacy and non-repudiation of data — the same
standards used by commercial banking applications. Encryption prevents any data changes and
controls access, so data is always protected whether it's posted to a website or sent via email, or
moved to other applications.

Legally Binding: Formatta's architecture allows regulated industries to keep legally binding, non-
repudiable copies of the electronic form and data as they were originally presented and submitted.

Authentication – Formatta authenticates users' assuring and tagging identities of each data
submitter and form publisher.

Enterprise class
Formatta easily scales to meet the demands of large enterprises.

508 Compliance
Government agencies and many commercial organizations are required to make information technology
accessible to people with disabilities. Formatta fully meets Section 508 requirements. Formatta worked
directly with the Department of Education, the General Services Administration, the Internal Revenue Service
and the Social Security Administration, and many other organizations to incorporate support for Section 508
accessibility standards.

Other Features That Matter

Field Lock - Groups of fields can be locked while other groups are unlocked, hiding sensitive data.

Form Lock - Prevents other users from modifying or otherwise changing data capture screens.

Transition to Electronic Data Capture

Sometimes it's not practical to eliminate paper-based data capture all at once. Formatta makes the
transition to electronic data capture easy. With Formatta, you can collect data from paper-based forms as
you transition to electronic data capture by taking advantage of Formatta Barcode. Formatta Barcode allows
users to submit information either by electronic or paper-based methods.

With this hybrid transition approach, users can complete an electronic data capture screen, print out the
completed information, which includes a secure barcode, then “submit” the information via hardcopy.
Although the information arrives on paper, data can still be moved to critical applications electronically. Any
flatbed or handheld scanner can read the barcode using Formatta Barcode. The barcode is decrypted and
data is securely moved to applications and/or databases.
