OpenText Cloud Fax - OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between OpenText Cloud Fax and OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting

1. Fax Volume and SLA Performance Dashboards

Data flow: OpenText Cloud Fax ? OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting

Organizations can feed fax transaction data such as send and receive volumes, delivery status, retry counts, failed transmissions, and turnaround times into Magellan BI & Reporting to create operational dashboards. This gives operations teams visibility into fax service performance by department, location, or business unit.

Business value: Improves service monitoring, helps identify bottlenecks, and supports SLA reporting for regulated workflows such as claims processing, referrals, and legal document exchange.

2. Compliance Reporting for Regulated Communications

Data flow: OpenText Cloud Fax ? OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting

Fax audit logs, transmission confirmations, user activity, and retention metadata can be analyzed in Magellan BI & Reporting to produce compliance reports for healthcare, government, and legal teams. Compliance officers can track who sent what, when it was sent, whether it was delivered, and whether required acknowledgments were received.

Business value: Strengthens audit readiness, reduces manual evidence collection, and supports internal and external compliance reviews.

3. Exception Management for Failed or Delayed Fax Deliveries

Data flow: OpenText Cloud Fax ? OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting

Failed fax attempts, busy signals, invalid numbers, and delayed deliveries can be aggregated in Magellan BI & Reporting to identify recurring exceptions by sender, recipient, region, or document type. Operations teams can use this insight to prioritize remediation and reduce repeat failures.

Business value: Lowers rework, improves delivery success rates, and helps service teams proactively address recurring communication issues.

4. Departmental Usage and Cost Allocation Reporting

Data flow: OpenText Cloud Fax ? OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting

Fax usage metrics such as page counts, outbound transaction volumes, peak usage periods, and cost by business unit can be analyzed in Magellan BI & Reporting. Finance and shared services teams can allocate fax-related costs more accurately across departments or cost centers.

Business value: Enables chargeback reporting, supports budget planning, and highlights opportunities to reduce unnecessary fax traffic.

5. Document Workflow Analytics for ECM-Connected Fax Processes

Data flow: OpenText Cloud Fax ? OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting

When faxed documents are routed into ECM or case management systems, metadata from fax events can be combined with document workflow data in Magellan BI & Reporting. This allows teams to measure how long it takes for a faxed document to move from receipt to indexing, review, approval, or case closure.

Business value: Improves end-to-end process visibility, shortens cycle times, and helps identify workflow delays in document-intensive operations.

6. High-Volume Sender and Recipient Trend Analysis

Data flow: OpenText Cloud Fax ? OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting

Magellan BI & Reporting can analyze which internal teams, external partners, or facilities send and receive the highest fax volumes. This is useful for identifying business-critical communication patterns, seasonal spikes, and dependency on fax-based processes.

Business value: Supports capacity planning, helps prioritize automation efforts, and reveals where fax remains embedded in core operations.

7. Operational Reporting for Fax-Driven Case Processing

Data flow: Bi-directional, with OpenText Cloud Fax providing transaction data and OpenText Magellan BI & Reporting providing reporting outputs to business teams

In case-based environments such as insurance claims, patient referrals, or permit processing, fax events can be linked to case records and analyzed in Magellan BI & Reporting. Reports can show how fax receipt impacts case aging, backlog, and resolution time. Business users can then use these insights to adjust staffing or escalation rules.

Business value: Improves case throughput, supports operational planning, and gives managers a clearer view of fax-dependent process performance.
