Financial and Accounting Records Scanning, Lockbox, and Data Extraction

The close should not wait on the mail.

Collecting payments, paying vendors, and financial forecasting require tens of thousands of small transactions to happen reliably and consistently. Outsourcing your financial and accounting records scanning and data extraction means faster, more accurate information flowing through your system and staff time freed up. Accounts receivable lockbox, accounts payable invoice capture, and printing and mailing statements are the time-intensive tasks that trigger the biggest savings when outsourced. Faster turnaround for lockbox and invoice capture, trained staff for peaks and valleys in volume, and higher security and accuracy than in-house.

// The Problem

What slows finance and accounting down.

Finance runs on documents that arrive on paper, on someone else’s schedule.

 

Checks sit before they clear

Payments wait in a tray until someone gets to them, and cash flow waits with them.

Invoices arrive anywhere

Different offices, different people, no single view of what is outstanding.

Reconciliation is manual

Matching what arrived against what posted is a job nobody wants and everybody redoes.

Do you struggle with:
