Document Imaging Systems

Document Imaging Systems are efficient and effective, but expensive if you buy the wrong system. A document imaging system that requires a team of programmers to write changes into the software before the software is installed is unaffordable. In addition, document imaging software should not need a full time programmer to tweak the system every time someone wants a different report printed.

What is a document imaging system?    -the simplest definition is:

    A system in which documents are scanned via document scanners, indexed based on a unique value or set of values, and input into a database to be made available across a network for access by a group of users.

Variables include: who has access to those documents, what values are indexed,  when the documents are imaged, where the imaged documents are stored, why the document is in the system and how the document gets into the system.

"How you gather, manage and use information 
will determine whether you win or lose."

Bill Gates, former CEO Microsoft Corp.

      As a service bureau which scans, indexes and inputs data in a document management system, we have seen examples of other software where thousands of dollars were spent on programming  to adapt the software to the customer needs, after the company have purchased the 'complete' software package. Don't be fooled into buying software that "can be programmed to fit your company's requirements". The PaperTrack document imaging software can be point-and-click configured by your system administrator to do the tasks you need to do. No calling outside programmers, no need for internal programmers, just point and click configuration.

The PaperTrack Document Imaging System has these key features and more:

• run most Twain scanners

• index and populate the database (use a comma delimited text file!)

• point-and-click cross referencing (right-click to see the PO, Shipping Invoice!)

• email documents (with typical SMTP compliant systems)

• With PT-Applink, link your third party application to PaperTrack's database

• Works with SQL and Oracle databases!
