Basics for Document Imaging & Management Systems
This page covers the basics of document imaging and document management.

Document imaging is the conversion of paper documents into electronic images on your computer. Once on your system, these documents can be retrieved effortlessly in seconds.

Thousands of organizations around the world use document imaging every day instead of paper filing systems. The reasons for this change are simple:
 
Document Imaging:
  • Prevents lost records
  • Saves storage space
  • Manages records easily
  • Finds documents quickly
  • Makes images centrally available
  • Automate workflow processes

The steps necessary to introduce document imaging are simple:

Documents are scanned or imported into the system. The document imaging system stores them somewhere on a hard drive or optical disk. The documents then get indexed. When office authorized personnel want to read a document, they use the retrieval tools available in the system. Which documents can be read and what actions performed on these documents is dependent on the access provided by the document imaging system. 
Integration
The goal of Business Products Integration is to allow business components and services to be integrated in a vendor-independent way, allowing businessmen and vendors use our various products together. We believe that good software has open standards and can easily integrate or share data with other applications. FileHold was designed from the ground up with both simple and sophisticated ways to communicate with other software applications.
