Introducing Secure Web Forms

As much as we try to digitize and automate digital integration processes, there are still times when manual interaction is required. Whether it is for manual data entry, or a stopping point for input in and business approval workflow, organizations need the ability to plug human interactivity directly into processes.

That is why we are excited to release the new Form Connector. With the new Arc Form Connector, customers can design and deploy publicly accessible, data-driven, secure web forms that are fully integrated with your Arc workflow. Form input is stored in a common message format, which can then be integrated into any database, workflow, or back-office system.

Use the new secure forms capabilities of Arc to modernize your EDI and trading partner connectivity.

Invoice to Payment

Payment processing is a critical component of any digital business. The new Arc Payment Connector provides seamless payment processing integration with major payment electronic payment providers like Stripe, Authorize.NET, Chase Paymentech Orbital, Cyber Source, and others. Future versions of the payment connector will support reporting as well, enabling tighter integration of financial accounting processes like transaction reconciliation.

Additional Updates

  • IBM MQ Connector: Push messages to data queues and pull messages from queues over the IBM MQ protocol.
  • UI Upgrades: Organize your workflows with resizable connectors and descriptions.
  • Additional Connectors: Validate XML documents, TCP Server endpoint, and interact with remote RSS & Atom feeds with our latest connectors.
