Optical Character Recognition Software for Sage - How is this changing the way Sage users work?

Book your Free Online Demo of PaperLess Document Management for SagePeople, especially businesses have been relying heavily on paper document management- whether it be for invoices, record keeping, account management etc. There are, however many disadvantages to this system (for example loss by fire damage, misplacement, security issues, negative environmental impact on trees etc). Businesses wishing to avoid these issues should seriously consider switching to PaperLess document management. Though there are many uses of paperless document management, let’s focus on PaperLess accounting software and the benefits it can bring to your business.
  • PaperLess accounting software is made possible with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software
Without OCR software, the transition from paper to PaperLess document management will be a lot more time-consuming and tedious than it is now. OCR software enables the translation of all types of documents like images of typewritten or printed text into electronically readable files, so offices can easily convert their existing paper documents to electronic files.
  • PaperLess accounting software can increase your company’s productivity
Many companies, especially those with multiple clients, can identify with the pain of archiving clients’ files and documents. Listing and depositing hundreds of files from different accounts can become quite messy which requires manpower. Not to mention the difficulty of fetching existing data when required. PaperLess account management efficiently stores client documents electronically through the touch of some buttons, reducing the pain and manpower required and thus increasing productivity.
  • PaperLess accounting software and invoice approval workflow
Another revolutionary time-consuming system that arrived with PaperLess accounting software is invoice approval workflow. Tracking all the invoices electronically, the invoice approval workflow permits you to manage all the bill payment processes, enforce and streamline approvals for every bill and invoice received. Plus there's the bonus of remote accessibility- with the correct authorization you can access the invoice approval workflow from any computer, anywhere.
  • PaperLess accounting software improves document security
The PaperLess account management software has the advantage of being more secure and reliable than conventional paper methods because of encryption.
  • PaperLess account management does not require extra space
With PaperLess account management your company can store information from an infinite number of accounts in the space of a computer and desk. And the retrieval of data can be performed within a couple of clicks. Compare this to traditional paper methods which require physical storage (often outsourced), which incurs an extra cost and also the inconvenience of manually sorting through documents to perform a document search.
  • PaperLess account management is environmentally friendly
Last, but not least, going paperless is a tree friendly solution because it does not rely on the cutting down of trees, like paper methods do.

Leading UK Construction Company, GPF Lewis, streamlines purchase invoice and document approval processes by going PaperLess

Exceeding all client’s expectation, PaperLess software originated savings and increased productivity levels across the entire company. A project that went even further with the development of a brand new integration between PaperLess and EQUE2 Construction for Sage 50 Accounts, giving answer to GPF Lewis and many other construction companies’ needs.
Aiming at speeding up processing times while increasing data accuracy levels and, at the same time, stop the posting of duplicate invoices and reduce travelling costs, GPF Lewis made the strategic move of going PaperLess. For this leading construction and property services company, the fact that PaperLess is a Sage Developer together with the quality of the service provided, the competitive pricing and the seamless integration between PaperLess and Sage 50 Accounts were among some of the main factors that led to the choice of PaperLess.
“Our original aims were exceeded as the software brought numerous positive side effects.”
Graham Tallman, GPF Lewis Infrastructure & Systems Manager
The seamless integration between PaperLess and Sage together with PaperLess Automatic Invoice Recognition have, at the same time, allowed the company to automate data entry processes, increasing data accuracy levels and preventing any duplicate invoice from being posted into Sage without users being informed, which was one of the challenges the company faced.
Although hard to quantify the savings and productivity gains are reflected across the entire company with the Accounts team now being able to deal with increased workloads without adding staff, due to the fact that with data input automation processing documents is much faster than before and the number of errors have also been significantly reduced. Besides this, many remote staff are now able to review, code and authorise invoices remotely without travelling, saving GPF Lewis time and money while increasing the company’s productivity and competitiveness levels.
When it comes to storage and retrieval of documents, the company is saving archive space with a significant reduction in hard copy paperwork to file / store and also saving time on retrieving documents, since they can now be accessed directly from within Sage or from PaperLess Accounting Archive which, with a set of powerful search features, enables users to find any document in seconds.
EQUE2 Construction for Sage 50 Accounts – When GPF Lewis challenged PaperLess to take the integration even further…
With the results achieved exceeding the client’s expectations, GPF Lewis challenged PaperLess on helping them streamline their processes even further. This would be done by developing an integration with EQUE2 Construction for Sage 50 Accounts which the company had purchased to replace Sage job costings.
Wanting and needing to keep the benefits of PaperLess whilst processing data through EQUE2 and since this software did not allow them to retain the advantages gained with PaperLess, the client challenged PaperLess to develop an integration that would give answer not only to their needs but to the needs of all construction companies using the EQUE2 Construction module for Sage 50 Accounts.
Adding to the many benefits pointed out by GPF Lewis, the company also stresses that with the new integration coding costs is now much easier and reliable than before and they expect the development to continue with take-up from other clients.
