Although the accounts receivable (AR) or sales ledger department does not have the same issues as the purchase ledger department because it is in control of the out going invoices, Document Management can still play its part to streamline it's processes, make it more efficient and reduce costs dramatically.
Remittance Advice processing
The biggest win for the AR department is in processing remittance advice notes upon receipt. When a remittance advice is received by post, fax or email it can be processed using the same workflow which identifies the sender, the amount and which invoices the remittance is for, which is then passed to the accounts or SAP system for processing.
Electronic images of the documents are instantly available for the accounts receivable staff to refer to. Cheques can be scanned using cheque scanners to ensure the quick and accurate capture of data if payment is received in that way.
