Scanning Documents


Invoices, journal entries and requisitions can be scanned and saved before being processed further electronically. If you have a scanner, you can scan your documents and save them as attachments, e.g. to journal entries in the program. Find out more about this in Linking documents to a journal.

Some program suppliers deliver custom-made programs for the scanning and further electronic processing of different types of documents. Especially invoices from your suppliers are specifically well-suited for this type of treatment. To facilitate this, you require scanning software and often also OCR software. OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition and is a program which 'reads' and translates texts in an electronic document and which you can gradually 'teach' to translate texts you scan often.

It is possible to import journals that are scanned and posted in the Compello program. This requires an Additional Product licence.
