  Splitter UI

Inspiration

The business problem we are trying to solve here is with splitting case attachments. Let's take a scenario where a user has to split a huge document attached to a case. Users would usually download the attachment from the case, then upload it into some third party software, split the document and then attach the smaller documents back to case. This process involves lot of effort and is time consuming.

What it does

Our PDF Page mover component provides an intuitive user friendly UI to split documents within the case, thus reducing the manual effort of using some other tool for the same purpose.

How we built it

Our component is built on Pega and PDF Box.

Challenges we ran into

1. Integrating PDF Box with pega
2. Writing generic code to work with attachments stored in different locations like DB, Repository

Accomplishments that we're proud of

1. Providing intuitive UI for business users
2. Potential time and effort savings for users

What we learned

1. Building components in Pega
2. Working with PDF Box API

What's next for Smart PDF Page Mover

1. Enable drag and drop functionality to select the pages to be split
2. Extend it to work on attachments in Repository
