Yaletown Technology Group Announces Enhancements for Universal File Importer; UFI 5.1 Helps Organizations Gain More Control Over Unmanaged Content to Improve Adherence to Records Management and Compliance Requirements


VANCOUVER, B.C. --(Business Wire)-- Aug. 8, 2005 -- Yaletown Technology Group Inc. (YTG, URL: http://www.yaletech.com), a leading provider of enterprise content compliance solutions, today announced the release of Universal File Importer (UFI) 5.1, the premier business process tool for managing file system documents with FileNet Corporation's Enterprise Content Management repositories. FileNet Corporation (Nasdaq: FILE) is the leading provider of enterprise content and business process management solutions. UFI 5.1, a component of YTG's CONSPECT(TM) compliance solution, features several enhancements including support for additional FileNet repositories, dynamic record classification, and file system shortcuts.



Universal File Importer 5.1 provides automated, real-time management of large volumes of files, by loading the content into FileNet or managing the content in place. Using UFI, organizations easily gain control over unmanaged content in file systems and network drives, improving adherence to records management and compliance requirements.

The new version offers more flexibility by providing an alternative to loading documents into FileNet repositories. UFI 5.1 creates and loads proxy objects into FileNet Records Manager, where the objects are managed within a full records management lifecycle. The original source objects can then be kept in place on the network file share, where they can be locked down and secured but still be available for access by applications or users.


For organizations with multiple FileNet repository formats, UFI 5.1 also adds support for FileNet Image Services and Content Services, in addition to support already provided for FileNet Content Manager and Records Manager. UFI's existing flexible rules-based document loading and indexing now also permit FileNet properties - including Records Manager classification and multi-value properties - to be assigned dynamically to each document based upon metadata taken from the files themselves or accompanying metadata files. Post-processing options include the ability to delete, move or flag the source file, or replace it in the network file share with a Windows shortcut to the file imported into FileNet.

Yaletown Technology Group Inc. (YTG) provides content compliance technology to ensure that email, instant messages, intellectual property and documents are managed using records management best practices and tools. With fifteen years experience, and the most innovative approach anywhere, YTG has solutions deployed in companies worldwide.
