Method and system for managing electronic documents in an agenda process

Abstract

Method, system and computer-readable medium containing instructions for agenda management integrating imaging, document management, workflow processes, intelligent forms and output management. Imaging is used to capture hard-copy documents into an electronic document management system where they are stored and indexed in one or more databases for subsequent searching and retrieval. Documents inputted electronically at a workstation or other computing device are electronically delivered to an agenda management system where they are to be stored. Workflow processes are utilized to automatically route the electronic documents to all parties involved in the approval process and to track their status. Intelligent forms are used to populate a database and the information is used to populate auto filled templates. Output management is used to publish the auto-filled templates, which include meeting agendas and associated minutes for use by an organization and members of the public.
