Server Storage of Fax Images, Database Logs, and Shared Resources Files generated or accessed by the clients would be stored in the server for central control and administration. Disk space may be limited at the workstation. Large storage capacities are usually reserved for the server. Images on a server could also be used by an administrator for archival and security. Based on client input, or predefined client and matter numbers, professional service companies recover costs associated with facsimile communications.
Companies can track and bill departments, clients and any other entity based on usage.
The database would be open for third party applications to exploit the stored billing information. Every server that has a FAXserve license will detect and can utilize communication hardware installed on that machine. Restarting the FAXserve Communication Engine will accommodate any changes made on a server. Accounting of Fax Activity and Statistics Administrators can account for fax traffic by user, destination, time, etc. through FAXserve for Windows NT views or through an exportable database file. Detailed information is made available to the administrator that will help them better organize and evaluate how the system is used.
