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.

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

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.
