Nuance Communications, Inc. have announced that the Boston Red Sox have chosen their PDF and network scanning desktop software eCopy PaperWorks for their accounting department to help create more efficient and faster invoice processing.

           The Red Sox accounting staff will be converting scanned paper documents into searchable PDF files, and moving them into electronic invoice processing workflows. eCopy PaperWorks will help Red Sox eliminate manual invoice processing, thus saving time and reducing costs.
          “eCopy PaperWorks has enabled us to take a highly fragmented, paper-bound process and bring it into our systems to gain greater control and speed,” said Red Sox Senior Vice President/Chief Financial Officer Steve Fitch. “We now have visibility to all information in every step of our accounting workflows, which is helping us squeeze time and waste out of our process.”
           Red Sox works with numerous vendors, receiving thousands of invoices monthly. These are now scanned to PDF files after entering the accounting department. eCopy PaperWorks is integrated with MS SharePoint, which the Red Sox have utilized as a central location for information.
           “The ability of eCopy PaperWorks to connect so tightly with SharePoint was the primary reason we selected the Nuance software. eCopy PaperWorks and SharePoint deliver a powerful combination that is in keeping with our organizational philosophy of going green as much as possible. The software products are helping us get paper off of our desks – and reduce copying and printing in our office,” said Fitch.
