The implementation successfully automated covered critical finance processes such as Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and multiple internal-approval processes. Newgen solution has been integrated with SAP, allowing users at the Shared Service Center to view images from within the SAP entries and make image-based entries.
By centralizing and detaching the finance function, the solution helps Kuoni to focus on its core business and strategizing. Kuoni obtained multiple benefits such as reduced paper work, easier storage, routing and archival of documents, better sharing and collaboration of data to facilitate quick and informed decision making, reduced manpower costs, better risk management and risk compliance, among others.

Distributed Capture Solutions
The last decade has witnessed comprehensive automation of processes across industries. However, contrary to the expectations, automation has not resulted in elimination of paper. Banks, insurance companies, and financial institutions extensively use paper for carrying out their operations. Similarly, other industries, too, use paper in their processes. Automation of processes is directly linked to capturing documents in their electronic form and then using these electronic or digitized documents throughout the process flow.

Integration is the word for DMS
“Worldwide, large organizations have implemented ECM for efficient working or reducing paper-based processing and building knowledge bases. India lags in this mindset. At the moment, although compliance is being talked about, real implementations are few. Current usage is typically based on customer record management mainly telecom, centralization of paper-intensive business for banks and insurance, file tracking initiatives from e-governance and few that involve image-enabling ERP systems.”
