Tangible benefits would include the followingThis model presents set of complete and integrated document management procedure initiating from facilitating the documentation by segregating and aligning the files, affixing unique bar codes, transferring files into application, scanning the bar codes, and updating the application with location to executing the data storage through data uploading. Scanning documents and integrating them into a document management system provides flexibility in data storage and greatly reduces the amount of prime storage space required by paper. It also allows any documents that still have to be stored as paper to be stored in less expensive locations.
Optical Character Recognition (OCR)/Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR)The integrated model creates electronic images of documents and stores them centrally. It provides key DMS procedures such as the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR).
