SCAN TO ARCHIVE VS. CAPTURE>PROCESS>ARCHIVE – THE NEW TREND FOR INVOICE PROCESSING AUTOMATION

The truth is that businesses have been relying heavily on manual invoice processing. Dealing with paper invoices can be time consuming and can cause many human errors with manual data entry. Some companies are still using the traditional methodology Scan to Archive, which means they only digitise invoices for archiving purpose. Unfortunately, countless manual errors happen because of the old fashion way of processing paper invoices in an organisation. The latest methodology Capture>Process>Archive has become the most efficient way for invoice processing. PaperLess captures your invoice data by digitising paper invoices at an early stage of the workflow process.

After invoices have been digitised and edited in PaperLess, businesses can post batches of invoices directly into their existing accounting applications.
