MediaBank 3.5: LDAP Support
Posted on: November 10th, 2008 by Charlie Wright No Comments

MediaBank 3.5 Feature Name: LDAP Support

MediaBank Version: Workgroup and Enterprise

Benefits: The I.T. headaches caused by managing many user accounts in different systems is minimized within MediaBank by promoting consistency, saving time, and decreasing administrative costs through LDAP automation.

Description: MediaBank 3.5 now integrates with LDAP and Active Directory. LDAP and Active Directory are application protocol tools that allow administrators to define users, grant permissions, and assign policies to users and groups from a central database. Once a user is defined, given new permissions, or terminated in LDAP or Active Directory, MediaBank 3.5 automatically updates this information within its own system. Therefore, I.T. or Administrative personnel do not have to remap or re-authenticate users in MediaBank, as they did previously. Additionally, LDAP Support authenticates users remotely for the web, so these remote users do not need to be redefined in Active Directory. By removing the need to manually manage MediaBank users, this automatic feature saves employees time and ultimately decreases administrate costs for the company.

MediaBank 3.5: Projects
Posted on: November 3rd, 2008 by Charlie Wright 1 Comment

MediaBank 3.5 Feature Name: Projects

Version: Static (Workgroup and Enterprise), Dynamic (Enterprise only)

Benefits: Automatic asset routing enhances transitions between workflow processes while providing a clear picture of what is in each queue.

Description: MediaBank 3.5 now supports static and dynamic projects. Projects are permission based collections that can be assigned to job jackets (static) or based on searches (dynamic). Dynamic projects act as role-based jobs by allowing users to set up queries such as “Assigned to me”, “In the proofing stage”, or “For Customer X”. These role-based queries provide real-time, relevant results with respect to the user, group, time, and date. All projects have metadata which can be used for reporting to enable managers to identify workflow outliers that can easily be used to pinpoint bottlenecks in work flow or similarly recognize efficiencies in various processes.
