Pearl Scans electronic scanning and archiving of purchase invoices
Date: 01/05/2008
This month Pearl Scan Solutions has focused on a campaign to help companies manage their purchase invoices in a better manner by scanning and converting them into electronic format. Therefore paper archives would be available via a disk or on a computer network available to relevant staff.
By choosing to archive documents electronically it eliminates the need for filing cabinets and paper copies. You can quickly locate an invoice within the system using a text search. Ideally companies want to free up more office space and get rid of clutter, this process encourages and helps obtain this possibility.
Using the latest edition scanners invoices and other documents such as contracts, purchase orders, tenders and timesheets can be stored electronically on the organisations network which would mean faster and easier access without the need for searching through paper files for any required documents.
Companies would in turn receive a return on investment, manage their documents more effectively and be able to back them up in case of an accident resulting in damage to any paper files. Other benefits include:
Instant access to any required files on your desktop
Secure and shared access between relevant staff and departments
Save on cost and time - of file searching
Create more office space by removing filing cabinets of documents
Powerful search capabilities find specific information with a keyword search
You could be the first in the company to implement this method of document organisation which could see other departments follow suit to see the same return on investment.
The admissibility of electronic copies means that the paper versions no longer need to be kept lying around, the scanned files can also be backed up in the event of accidents and multiple copies can be created and stored in numerous locations.
Forward thinking organisations are taking this step towards the future of document management and leaving behind the old paper trail dilemma.
