DbFax - The Automatic e-Commerice Faxing SolutionDbFax

The Automatic e-Commerice Faxing Solution

Organisations today are reaping huge benefits by automatically faxing business documents directly from core business applications with just a couple of mouse-clicks. Tightly integrated into all the main Accounting, Manufacturing and ERP applications, DbFax is enabling numerous organisations to achieve immense savings of time and money.

Dramatic Savings

DbFax eliminates pre-printed stationery, by automatically merging the computer text with an image of the appropriate document. As all the documents are stored electronically, changes to telephone numbers, logos, etc. can be made in seconds, removing the need for costly reprinting of pre-printed stationery. Postage and handling costs are also totally eliminated, since these processes are unnecessary when faxing directly - typical savings are over £1.50 per document.

As faxing all statements, debtors' letters, stop letters and copy invoices ensures immediate delivery, organisations report huge reductions in debtor days, leading to improved cash flow. Using the time-scheduling facility for off-peak faxing generates additional savings.

Increased Productivity

Printing, decollating, bursting, folding and mailing are all totally eliminated - just a couple of mouse-clicks and all business documents will be automatically faxed out. Immediate faxing of documents such as purchase orders and confirmations means that lead times and stockholding will be cut substantially. Faxing documents directly from any computer takes seconds and saves tremendous amounts of time.

Professional Image

DbFax eliminates the need for pre-printed stationery, by automatically merging the computer text with the stored image, so that the resultant fax looks just like the original document. Since documents are sent directly from the computer system, without having to be scanned, they are always crystal clear. DbFax's ability to automatically generate overlay graphics such as company name, logos and signatures gives all documents a much more professional look, transforming the company image.

Fast Payback

Fast PaybackBy eliminating pre-printed stationery, postage and labour costs, DbFax users world-wide report a typical pay-back period of three months, with many organisations reporting a pay-back of just a few days. DbFax is tightly integrated to all the other modules from Version One's e-business office automation suite: DbForm, DbMail, DbBACS-iP and DbArchive.
