image\fls000_shg.gif FaxLink System Overview

The FaxLink module provides desktop Faxing capabilities for all FACTS report and print programs.

The FaxLink module uses VSI-FAX Gold Series, which runs on UNIX and NT systems. VSI-FAX ships with one server license and five client licenses; however an unlimited number of FACTS users can send Faxes from inside FACTS.

Users simply select the Fax modem as they would a printer, and the system displays the Fax Information Entry window, where they enter their Fax request information.

You can Fax a document to as many as 9,999 recipients and as few as one. If for any reason the Fax request could not be transmitted successfully (i.e., busy signal, wrong phone number, etc.), the system displays trace logs so the Fax Administrator can troubleshoot the problems.

Faxlink includes the following subsystems:
