Document Capture,
Archiving (Document Management) & Fax Integrations Webinar

Join us for a discussion on best practices on
how to reduce costs related to document processing, including:
• Capturing
documents, files and forms data to eliminate data entry costs.
• Archiving
documents, files, images for fast retrieval.
• Automate the
delivery of documents with a fax server with integrations to Microsoft
Exchange (Outlook), Lotus Notes, SAP, MQ Series, FoIP and more.
Capturing the data off documents and forms can present a challenge.
In this Webinar you'll learn about:
• How to differentiate between fixed,
semi-structured and unstructured data types and how they can be extracted
from forms & documents.
• How to economically archive &
search for the document information fast
• What to consider in planning for the implementation, adoption and the ROI.
• An overview of the benefits and potential ROI
The loss of documents and/or of
information are expensive for companies either in revenues or either because
they generate additional costs such as; litigation, useless research, and
starting over work that has already been done. If your organization is manually
keying in data from forms (of whatever type), an automated solution can
reduce cost, improve accuracy, and increase speed. Automating the document
workflow can produce a quick, measurable ROI for any organization with
Capture, Archiving & Faxing.

SharePoint &
SimpleCapture :: Eliminate Data
Entry from A/P Environments

Manually processing forms and documents like invoices, PO's, way
bills and other complex documents often means lot’s of data
entry, typo's and piles of work everyday. When every document is
a One-Off, keying the information manually is counter
productive! Most capture software requires building a unique
template for each vendor or document type - that is time
consuming, costly, highly technical - and automated volume based
capture systems can't cut it with One-Off's.
Watch as SimpleCapture can easily capture
and process fields of data from invoices, PO's, resumes, way
bills and other complex documents including line item detail and
export images and data into Microsoft SharePoint during this
live presentation.

Keeping
Inbound Documents Electronic - Quit Paper
Webinar

Where are your business documents going? Who's doing
what with them? When the document is electronic, you'll know the answer. But

process. And you have the visibility to see what your team is doing. When
you keep inbound documents electronic, you'll have:
- Process history and audit trails from receiving to archiving
- Reporting on specific performance metrics
- Process control for regulatory compliance support
Join us to learn more about the advantages of an electronic lifecycle for
inbound documents, as well as the benefits of quitting paper and going
